Tired of being just some other girl
All these puffed up boys make me want to hurl
They come whisper sweet nothings in my ear
Later I let fall a glittering tear
Because I know it’s all a potent lie
It has only made me more and more shy
I hold back but my every move they haunt
They jab and poke ‘til they get what they want
I back down with my thoughts messed and muddled
Liquid lamentations form a puddle
I muster what I can of my spirit
But I still can’t stand to sit and hear it
This disgust is my cynical token
Of how I’ve been left jadedly broken

I just have to point out that the Liquid lamentations bit is one of my favorite pieces of imagery from my work =]

"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."
