A Shy Fighter

Quieter Than The Night

I can be demure

Yeah very shy

Because people in this world don’t treat you right

Don't like drawing attention to myself because their standard for me is at a greater height

Sometimes I don’t say a word and just wave hi and bye

I like it when my phone is dry

I can see right through their lies

Dealing with certain people makes me want to run and hide

Maybe I’m just protecting my pride

Some people used to make me cry

I pushed the people away that gave me light

I can be quieter than the dead of night

And still I will fight for whats right
