I'm not Moving

I'm not turning around.
I'm not gonna go down.
I'm not living a lie.
I'm not going to die.
I'm not telling you shit.
I'm not taking a hit
for your grounds anymore.
I won't be ignored.
I'm not shaking this off.
I'm not going to cough
in this vapor of lies.
I see the look in your eyes
and I know who you are.
I'm not hiding my scars.
I'm not doing anything
for you. I don't know why
you bit into a lie
that you made up yourself.
I'm not running like Hell.
I'm not fighting back tears.
I'm not downing some beers.
I'm not smoking a joint.
It wouldn't prove my point
that I'm not what you think.
I'm not seeing a shrink.
I'm not running from love.
I think I've had enough
of trying to defend
for all that you intend.
I'm not gonna slow down.
I'm not turning around.
I'm not doing this again.
I'm not losing my friend.
I'm not hitting the mark.
I'm not going to bark.
I'm not going to howl.
But I will not allow
anything else like this.
I'm not shaking my fist.
I'm just telling you now
how the rules are set now.
Don't pretend to be gone
although you know it's wrong.
It's not something you do
when we care about you.
