Abused Lyrics

Now that everybody's worn the expression
Not that you wanted to use
It seems untrue now
But the funniest thing is

You don't know what you're saying

Other people see some evil intention
But the closer you get
The more you get confused how
Why does everyone know
Been abused now
Didn't want it to show
