What Have I Done To Deserve This?
Verse 1
Everything is different now
The places I visited no longer welcome me anymore
There's signs on the doors with my face on them
I'm not allowed to enter
And if I do, I'll be escorted out
Verse 2
If they're looking for someone to blame
Then it should be you
Because you're more guilty than I've ever been
I don't lie and deceive
I'm honest and forthcoming
I've tried to tell others but they don't want to listen
They treat me as if I'm invisible
I really want to know what have I done to deserve this
Bridge 1
I always minded my own business
I lived my life as a good citizen
And now everybody treats me like I've done something wrong
Bridge 2
I'm not saying I'm perfect
I have made mistakes
But none so big that causes anyone to dislike me
What have I done to deserve this?
Chorus
Nobody talks to me
They point and stare at me
I really want to know what I have done to deserve this
Everybody laughs at me
They throw things at me
I really want to know what have I done to deserve this
Is this a nightmare because it sure feels like one
I try to get myself out of it but I'm trapped
I ask for help but people only turn away
They want nothing to do with me
Even though I haven't done anything to cause them to reject me
