Isn't it ironic? We ignore the ones who adore us, adore the ones who ignore us, love the ones who hurt us, and hurt the ones that love us.

If you don't have anything nice to say,
then can it.
If you can't stop staring,
then close your eyes.
Because the others can't stop hearing,
and they can't stop feeling,
they'll forget what you said,
or what you did,
but never how you made them feel!

We've all had enough,
we're ready to move on from this time of hate.
