You've got something to say about all the things
And you're quick to voice what is wrong from your small perspective
And you're so loud, it's sharp nails and chalkboards and Gottfried all night
You foment, let's keep that conflict strong for one more night
Blurring the facts, its cleverness bought on the cheap
Stirring the pot, just keep ratcheting up the heat
Maybe you appear strong to the unaware
But I see the child inside, so frail and scared
Pushing beyond your thin skin we find the heart within
Covered in scar, barbwire, chains, on alert to defend, we reach in
You're bothered, there's something you don't like and we all must know
Your beds made, but please tell us how you hate what you've chose
And you're too loud, your banging the drums in a library isle
You're so proud, you've caught our attention, though we choke on bile
