The People

His and hellos are common

But some people don’t wanna

Goodbyes are said very often

The horrors make you stronger

Eyes don’t look into eyes

They stare at your walking

Expressions give judgy sighs

Cause there ain’t no talking

 

Don’t know why I give in

Don’t know why I care

I may just wanna fit in

But I’m oh so scared

 

They are the people

They will stare

Smiles will turn to glares

Keep your head up high

When you walk by one of them

They’re talking

They are the people

They will judge

Hit you in the shoulder

Give a nudge

They have their nose up in the sky

When you walk by one of them

They’re watching

 

Hours and hours of practice

We never seem to impress

Minutes of humiliation

The days feel outstretched

 

Don’t know why I give in

Don’t know why I care

I may just wanna fit in

but I'm oh so scared

 

 

They are the people

They will stare

Smiles will turn to glares

Keep your head up high

When you walk by one of them

They’re talking

They are the people

They will judge

Hit you in the shoulder

Give a nudge

They have their nose up in the sky

When you walk by one of them

They’re watching

They are the people

They will stare

Smiles will turn to glares

Keep your head up high

When you walk by one of them

They’re talking

They are the people

They will judge

Hit you in the shoulder

Give a nudge

They have their nose up in the sky

When you walk by one of them

They’re watching

 

 

They are the people

They are the people

They are the people

When you walk by one of them

They’re watching

 

They are the people

They are the people

They are the people

When you walk by one of them

They’re watching
