When you’re “one of the good ones,”
You’re always walking on a tightrope.
You basically have to ignore
Or double down on whatever
Bigotry they spew in order to stay in their camp.
That’s what being “good” means to a bigot.
The reason you’re
“one of the good ones”
Is because you don’t create problems for them.
You don’t ask to be treated well.
You bend over backward..
Lyrics:
I know that
I say this enough
But I wanna turn it all around
And I know
I’ve been acting so tough
But I’m on the verge of breaking down
I try not to think about you too much
But whenever I do
I’m thinking too much
Yeah
When the rain falls on your skin
I’m jealous of it
But I realize that there’s no point
In hoping cause
You’ve
Forgotten
Me
Now all I see
Is all the broken pieces
I don’t wanna leave but
I guess I could say goodbye
Really I don’t wanna believe
That you were
One of the good ones
one of the good ones
Maybe I just don’t wanna see that
I lost one of the good ones
And everyday
I try to act like
I’m good
But there’s so much that
I should’ve done
So much that
I could’ve done
Maybe I don’t wanna believe that
I lost one of the good ones
And I know that you’ve heard this enough
But it’s hard when you’re always around
And I never wanna say it too much
But I’m on the verge of breaking down
And I try
Not to think
About our moment
But every little thing
You did was golden
I look at you now I see a different person
Now I could see that there’s no hope in hoping cause
You’ve
Forgotten
Me
Now all I see
Is all the broken pieces
I don’t wanna leave but
I guess I could say goodbye
Really I don’t wanna believe
That you were
One of the good ones
one of the good ones
Maybe I just don’t wanna see that
I lost one of the good ones
And everyday
I try to act like
I’m good
But there’s so much that
I should’ve done
So much that
I could’ve done
Maybe I don’t wanna believe that
I lost one of the good ones
I try not to think about you too much
But whenever I do
I’m thinking too much
Yeah
When the rain falls on your skin
I’m jealous of it
But I realize that there’s no point
In hoping cause
And I try not to think
About our moment
But every little thing
You did was golden
I look at you now I see a different person
Now I could see that there’s no hope in hoping cause
Really I don’t wanna believe
That you were
One of the good ones
one of the good ones
Maybe I just don’t wanna see that
I lost one of the good ones
And everyday
I try to act like
I’m good
But there’s so much that
I should’ve done
So much that
I could’ve done
Maybe I don’t wanna believe that
I lost one of the good ones
You’ve
Forgotten
Me
Now all I see
Is all the broken pieces
I don’t wanna leave but
I guess I could say goodbye
I try not to think about you too much
But whenever I do
I’m thinking too much
Yeah
When the rain falls on your skin
I’m jealous of it
But I realize that there’s no point
In hoping
Cause..
