Enough Already!
Enough, already! I can't stand it!
You shouldn't talk, it's not your place
You can feel that, just don't say it
Go and say it to their face!
I'm as guilty, I'll admit it
Sometimes I can't keep it in
But there's no excuse, no reason for it
I won't stand for it again
If you think that this is better
Talking bad behind their back
You're mistaken, sinful liar
You need to grasp the truth you lack
If you think it makes you cooler
To lie and smile to their face
It's neither right nor popular
And it will never be your place
If the reason that you hate them
Comes about every day
You need to fess up, need to tell 'em
Or it will never go away
Why do you even tell me this?
Why the constant agravation?
I don't want to know what it is
Don't want to fall to the temptation
If you think it gives you power
Makes you better cause you're right
Then you, my friend, are just a coward
Just cause you think it gives you the right
Enough, already, just be quiet
Go spread your hatred somewhere else
Just shut up, don't wanna hear it
You're just becoming them yourself
Just fess up, its not your place
Don't let those gossip lies come back
Go and say it to their face
And stop talking behind their back!

Oh my, Abe...I hope you don't kill yourself.
It's just that people complain about so many things about other people, particularly this one person, that are continuous, and I think you should tell her when they're happening so that she knows better than to do it again. Sure, the truth hurts, but at least she knows how you feel, and when you're talking behind her back, it's nothing you wouldn't say to her face, so it isn't back stabbing.
Haha, sorry. Had a moment there. ;-)
Fun side story, we have 6 out of 7 classes together next year...how fun. :-P
Well...still, it doesn't matter, you shouldn't talk behind her back. I was just venting my wrath out in writing and I guess it shows. [sheepish face] You make me feel guilty every time I read this, crawfordkid because I remember sending it to you and watching you read it from across the computer lab...
Are you lost, Asianflowers, I don't think we're talking about the same thing...
