tiny voices

"What was that you said in that tiny little voice of yours?"

Nothing, don't mind me

i wouldn't want to heckle your loud slurs

 

i'm just a girl with a new haircut

i got it yesterday

you didn't notice, did you now

or you're pretending not to care

 

all you see next to me are

your qualities and attributes

 

you took my voice, you took my will 

and i'd appreciate a restitute

 

you all see me as disrepute

you think I think that's fine?
