Scolded by school marms half my size 
Cuz they're too kind to let it slide
They're caught with their collective guards down while
they've stained all the wedding gowns.

Reverse your judgement please yourself, but
stay inside your shell
I don't need a hard sell

Clinging to the rock cliff side back to the earth I slide
The walls lock my thoughts inside and I know they'd never subside
I've got nothing here to hide.

There's value in knowing who hates me my reaction was pure and free
take it on yourself don't rely on me I'm nothing as you can see
A paragon of kindness yet you've got no charm
I'm too broke to buy the farm

Clinging to the rock cliff side back to the earth I slide
The walls lock my thoughts inside and I know they'd never subside
I've got nothing here to hide.
Clinging to the rock cliff side back to the earth I slide
The layered walls lock my fears inside.
