lyrics

I'm so tired of smiling and saying yes
of always being passed up
when I was clearly next
but I don't have the courage
to put my anger to the test

and I know that this ain't fair
I've heard it all my life
but that won't get me anywhere
so I keep turning on the knife

but I'm so tired of smiling and saying yes
of always being passed up
when I was clearly next
but I don't have the courage
to put my anger to the test

and I know that I don't play
all their silly games
I just do it my own way
but I'm angry all the same

I just take it all in stride
try not to quit the fight
I keep my fists balled by my side
and my lips pulled back real tight

but I'm so tired of smiling and saying yes
of always being passed up
when I was clearly next
but I don't have the courage
to put my anger to the test
and I'm so fucking tired
of saying yes
