People seem to think I'm strong
That I'm somehow stronger than glue
Shattered into a billion pieces
I'm just not like you

People seem to think I talk
That I let out harmful words
Twisted minded, I couldn't
I'll do whatever it takes, to not be you

People seem to think I'll forget
That everything you've done, I could do
Angered men forget their faults
I'm just not like you
