mixed feelings
There was my name written up on the whiteboard
It was more than I could have hoped for
But just as the joy started to take its toll
Someone decided to destroy my goal
Everyone said I'd done so, so good
And for a moment I felt happy, like I should
But just as we sat down to play it back
Others decided it just wasn't their track
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
That's what they always say
I was put to such a test
On that fateful day
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
This I know is true
Especially when those piercing words
Stop you from being you
My happiness was gone for the rest of that day
Nothing flipped my frown, despite what they'd say
"This ain't like you, what's going on?"
But I gave them no answer and silently pushed on
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
That's what they always say
I was put to such a test
On that fateful day
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
This I know is true
Especially when those piercing words
Stop you from being you
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
That's what they always say
I was put to such a test
On that fateful day
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
This I know is true
Especially when those piercing words
Stop you from being you
It was more than I could have hoped for
But just as the joy started to take its toll
Someone decided to destroy my goal
Everyone said I'd done so, so good
And for a moment I felt happy, like I should
But just as we sat down to play it back
Others decided it just wasn't their track
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
That's what they always say
I was put to such a test
On that fateful day
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
This I know is true
Especially when those piercing words
Stop you from being you
My happiness was gone for the rest of that day
Nothing flipped my frown, despite what they'd say
"This ain't like you, what's going on?"
But I gave them no answer and silently pushed on
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
That's what they always say
I was put to such a test
On that fateful day
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
This I know is true
Especially when those piercing words
Stop you from being you
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
That's what they always say
I was put to such a test
On that fateful day
"Harsh words always stick out from the rest"
This I know is true
Especially when those piercing words
Stop you from being you
