You are the person who laughed
at me with your friends
who called me names hours upon hours
without any end.
You are the person who brought me down
It was you who made everybody treat
me like a clown.
You hated me, that’s why
nobody could play with me
I felt lower than a cut down tree
A day would not go by
without the mirror ever seeing me cry
You had fun teasing me
but now you will pay the fee
