Left Behind

Getting pretty sick of getting ditched;
Getting pretty sick of getting left behind.
No one cares what I think;
No one cares what's on my mind.

I don't speak up;
I always back down.
Why can't someone understand;
What's really inside?

I can't stand up for myself.
But this feeling is so frustrating.
I want to empower myself.
But I just don't have the guts.

People alwyas walking over me,
Always inisisting their problems are bigger.
I give into them each time I turn around,
Wish I could stand my ground.
