Текст песни
Being nice got me here Being smart gets me out
Covered shifts no one asked
Stayed the late left the last
Youre reliable was the tag
Fancy word for a punching bag
Took the work took the heat
Bit my tongue kept it neat
Thought if I just give enough
Theyd see my worth but they called my bluff
Kind hands carry everyones weight
Smart hands know when to drop the crate
Kind is not the same as smart
One fills the room one guards the heart
Gave it all and got the floor
Now I know what my no is for
Office party I set the chairs
Nobody noticed nobody cares
Volunteered for the thankless list
Names not there but my weekends missed
Youre too kind she said and laughed
Like its a gift not a handicraft
Kindness without a line is a leak
Dripping out seven days a week
Soft heart open door
Everyone walks in nobody sweeps the floor
Kind is not the same as wise
One says yes one checks the price
Built the fence I shouldve had
Being good dont mean being had
When did helping turn into bleeding
Do they thank me or just keep feeding
Chest still warm but the hands are cold
Gave away the coat before the winter rolled
Kind is kind and smart is smart
Ones the door ones the lock
Now I keep my key inside
Not cruel just finally alive
Being nice got me here Being smart gets me out
