"Judge, Jury, Executioner"
I told you how you made me feel
Then you ridiculed me even more
I kept my mouth shut
Then you asked me what's wrong
I can't explain it all to you again
Because then you'll make more jokes
You'll make comments and sly remarks
You'll tear me apart
One day at a time
Until there's nothing left
But a hollow shell
Dark and cold
Completely numb
Are you playing dumb?
Do you really not see what you're doing to me?
Do you not care?
Were you ever there?
To love, to listen, to help me through
You know I want to die
I've said it to your face
But instead of helping me
You're pushing me closer to the edge
You're supposed to be my family
Love me unconditionally
But you would rather be
Judge, jury, and executioner
And you'll do it happily
Then you ridiculed me even more
I kept my mouth shut
Then you asked me what's wrong
I can't explain it all to you again
Because then you'll make more jokes
You'll make comments and sly remarks
You'll tear me apart
One day at a time
Until there's nothing left
But a hollow shell
Dark and cold
Completely numb
Are you playing dumb?
Do you really not see what you're doing to me?
Do you not care?
Were you ever there?
To love, to listen, to help me through
You know I want to die
I've said it to your face
But instead of helping me
You're pushing me closer to the edge
You're supposed to be my family
Love me unconditionally
But you would rather be
Judge, jury, and executioner
And you'll do it happily
