Kindness and Passivity

You mistook my kindness for weakness
My passivity for stupidity
Never once realizing
How strong beats the heart inside of me

Solicitous duplicity
beats at your core
I leave and you still
ask me for more


You mistook my kindness for weakness
My passivity for stupidity
Never once realizing
How strong beats the heart inside of me

Champion to none
your words came undone
Never did you imagine
I'd proudly walk away but not run


You mistook my kindness for weakness
My passivity for stupidity
Never once realizing
How strong beats the heart inside of me

Catching me came easy
Keeping me proved tough
How could I stay with you
When with you I was never enough?


You mistook my kindness for weakness
My passivity for stupidity
Never once realizing
How strong beats the heart inside of me

Smarter than you thought
Stronger than you knew
realizing too late
it wasn't me but it was you
