Over the Edge
Everyone’s mean and cruel
Pummeling and stealing
Talking lies, spreading rumors
Hurting someone’s feelings
You start on a boy
Because he’s too short
Or on the girl next door
Because she’s just the right sort
I never thought
I would be the one
To reestablish reality and
Ruin everyone’s fun
Preaching to everyone
How could you do this?
How could you tear someone down?
You have everyone on your list
You continue on
Leaving everyone one in the dust
Believing your the queen bee or king of the hill
You continue on, like you must
Next, you target me
Wishing me to stop
You stand watching me
As I jump off this rooftop
You’re still standing around like your cool
Thinking, “Wow, I must really be great!”
When really, all you are is this little girl
Who’s ugly personality couldn’t wait
Never thinking
That the rumors you dredge
Or how you act
Could push someone over the edge
Pummeling and stealing
Talking lies, spreading rumors
Hurting someone’s feelings
You start on a boy
Because he’s too short
Or on the girl next door
Because she’s just the right sort
I never thought
I would be the one
To reestablish reality and
Ruin everyone’s fun
Preaching to everyone
How could you do this?
How could you tear someone down?
You have everyone on your list
You continue on
Leaving everyone one in the dust
Believing your the queen bee or king of the hill
You continue on, like you must
Next, you target me
Wishing me to stop
You stand watching me
As I jump off this rooftop
You’re still standing around like your cool
Thinking, “Wow, I must really be great!”
When really, all you are is this little girl
Who’s ugly personality couldn’t wait
Never thinking
That the rumors you dredge
Or how you act
Could push someone over the edge
