Gossip Song
The way the talk will start
The way the whisper wafts
On the silent breeze
The way it stabs the heart
The way it grips your common sense
And manipulates your thoughts
The way it goes behind your back
The way it still gets heard
And plagues the thoughts
The way it stabs the heart
The way they follow through
Chipping away your trust
The way you lose your self-esteem
The way you walk the halls
Depressed, eyes downcast
The way it stabs the heart
The way you wish to disappear
Never again to return
The way it can't be undone
The way you cry alone
At night, hiding well
The way it stabs the heart
The way it follows you
Forever taunting, never resting
The way it is forgotten
The way a new target appears
A lonely little girl
The way it stabs the heart
The way she starts to sniffle
And you comfort her
In a way only you know how
