This Isn't Right

In my life I tried to act strong Trying to take all the slaps and punches Though they did it thinking I could take it Doesn’t make it right They didn’t see the bruises they left The tears that were shed They didn’t see me dying inside I wanted to live up to my appearance But only tortured myself in the process Only someone who doesn’t understand Would say to me that it was my fault I should stand up for myself But they don’t know I’m able to but I don’t People see me as dangerous Cause of my appearance They think I want to hurt people I only want to love That’s why I allow them to abuse me And wait for the day they stop and think This isn’t right
