I left my home for the weekend, and the safety of my bed
My life is secure, my opinions validated
I feel special in my head
The world outside seems so shitty
All the people try to bring me down
I thought that I was perfect
And I thought that they would love me
But instead they only try to offend
I can’t believe what they said
Well sometimes criticism is given
It’s the one true fact about the world we live in
You can choose to accept or reject critique
There’s a risk that you take every time you speak
If you shout your opinions in a public place
Well then they might just shout right back in your face
If you think that you’re safe guess again my friend
Because sometimes life’s just got to offend
My mother told me she loves me and she’d always hold my hand
She told me that my feelings were the only thing that mattered
But nobody seems to understand
Not everything is gonna be about you
Cause the world keeps turning whether with or without you
You can cry your griefs about what you believe
But don’t expect anyone to see the way you see
Don’t expect anyone to feel the way you feel
When the flack that you’re fed is a three course
Offense is never given it can only be taken
When the age of outrage comes to break you down
