Walls of Red White and Blue

They whisper in my ear

They whisper as I walk alone 

They speak of vile things that they cannot say to my face

for the inetnion of hurt and conformity

Is this what I am supposed to be? 

Is this who I am? 

Am I what they say I am? 

silence... 

I am me, only me

and no one can change that.
