Sinking In

Messenger
Gossip
Whatever you want to call it
The multiple meanings
Stick in my head
Filling me
With a sense of dread

She says I'm not
Then says I am
This kind of thing seems to happen a lot
It's normally just a misunderstanding
But with all the confusion
I'm slowly breaking
What does she really mean?
I guess this is all part
Of being a teen

I've already fought against the words
But they keep coming up
They stick like burrs
They're sinking in
Rattling against my brain like tin
I can't get them out
Now there's very little doubt...

If they believe it
Couldn't it be true?
Me being wrong about me...
Nothing there that's really new
