People point fingers at everything they see,

Hairstyles, and lines of laughter,

Fashion choices and shoes,

Skin color and appearance.

​

People laugh at almost everything they see,

Skin color, appearances,

Fashion choices, shoes,

Hairstyles, and lines of laughter too,

If we shoot back, are we mocking them too?

​

If we laugh at people's artwork, it's considered rude,

When we laugh at people's misfortune, no one bats an eye,

​

Why is it if I use gallows humor, adults ask me if I'm okay,

I'm putting myself on the gallows, not you,

So when you put me on the gallows, it's okay?

I'm putting myself right back where I belong.

​

Gallows humor for me is okay,

I'm putting myself where I belong, helping myself,

Allow me to walk there by my lonesome,

Do not walk me there yourself.
