One wrong word said
Another friendship dead
One life to burn
Seems I took a wrong turn.

One bully to beat
Another dead end street
Once again I'm out of line
Seems I missed a stop sign.

Bit off more than I can chew
Of dirty tricks and attitudes
A lesson I needed to learn
Guess I missed my turn.

Fighting when I should let go
Can't stop saying "no"
Always have a sword to wield
Must have forgotten to yield.

Black-eyed and bruised
Stubborn and confused
Never giving up the fight
Guess I didn't see the red light.
