Everyone tries hard everyday
Yet sometimes it never seems to pay
You want to be sucessful in life
But it feels like you've been stabbed with a knife

People laugh and stare
Hardly anyone will care
Some try to put you down
And turn your smile into a frown

Though others are entitled to helping
When they hear you yelping
You have to decipher who's your friend or foe
Or you'll be in a state of misery and woe
