Teddy Bear

Maybe I'll just buy a teddy bear,

A white or brown one,

But surely a cuddly one,

To warm my heart,

When I'm feeling cold.

I'm just a normal guy,

Just need a hug,

Just need to cry.

I don't understand this world, never really did.

Seldom a good soul, barely two.

The coldness and injustice,

The evil and lies,

Few ask for my side, my story,

Always the trodden upon.

I am always alone, bullied, and trampled.

The little hedgehog no one loves.

Do I really look strong,

Don't they see further within,

That the one who smiles the most,

Maybe the one who cries to sleep at night.

Maybe I'll just buy a teddy bear,

A white or brown one,

But surely a cuddly one,

To stand by me,

When I'm feeling abandoned.

I'm just a normal guy,

Just need a hug,

Just need to cry.

I will not look at them, nor bother with them.

They who judge so quickly,

They who spread lies to cover their wickedness,

Avenge me oh Lord, fight for me,

Send me good souls,

For else I would have no hope.

Maybe I'll just buy a teddy bear,

A white or brown one,

But surely a cuddly one,

To pretend-hug me back,

When I'm feeling lonely.

I'm just a normal guy,

Just need a hug,

Just need to cry.

All those hypocrites, 

Preaching love and assuring support,

Yet never once listening to me,

Always turning against me,

Blind self-righteous people without empathy

Throwing stones when they are scarlet,

When the mirror reflects a crooked person.

Maybe I'll just buy a teddy bear,

A white or brown one,

But surely a cuddly one,

To soak up my tears,

When I'm feeling cold.

I'm just a normal guy,

Just need a hug,

Just need to cry.
