Bystander

Sidestepping To decide No action To divide Falling down in front of you Pick me up or else were through Paint me like you wanted to Fail me like you always do I refuse to bite my tongue I refuse to give my young Just a blister in the sun I refuse to bite my tongue Catch a glimpse, of your eye As you turn away Your help felt permanent But it never stayed Take a look, from sidelines Could be you any day Patient with your detractors As they get their way Falling down in front of you Pick me up or else were through Paint me like you wanted to Fail me like you always do I refuse to bite my tongue I refuse to give my young Just a blister in the sun I refuse to bite my tongue You asked, you plead for help But no, no one else Would lend a hand Would have your back You take but never receive This impersonal disease We all stop and stare Do we not even care
