Description
You look over me slowly,
Make your decision,
Start talking.

I listen to every word you have to say,
Every single thing you throw out there,
I offer a suggestion or two,
You prattle on like you haven’t even heard me,
‘Cause I’m not here to offer advice,
I’m just here to listen,
You something like that,
Go talk to a wall.

You’re not the only one either,
Everyone I know is like that,
Simply put,
I’m their wall,
Ain’t good enough to be their friend,
Not popular enough to be anybody else’s,
So I’m the only one safe enough to talk to,
The only one around who won’t spill it to everyone else,
I am, in essence,
A cold stone wall,
I’m everybody’s wall,
Save for a few.

Written on,
Spit on,
Graffitied and beaten,
Whispered to and yelled at,
You can do almost anything to me,
Say almost anything to me,
And like the sucker I am,
I’ll let you come back and do it all again.

I’m done playing the dunce,
Through playing at caring,
I’m not anything to you,
Worth not even the grimiest penny in your pocket,
You want someone to talk to eh?
More like someone to talk at,
Y’all need someone to listen?
Find someone who gives a damn.
I’m through caring about you,
Or her, or him, or anyone,
Who won’t lend an ear to my suggestions,
My advice,
My own problems.
Want someone to hear all your problems?
The walls fed up,
And it’s decided to finally pick up and leave you.
The empty hole is quite open and ready to hear you though.
