Un problema menos

I know they think without speaking
That I'm more of a hindrance than a help
And that I'm just a problem
And that because of my way of being
I only manage to hinder
Their hopes and their goals

I'm a conflict, it seems to be the verdict
And that I'm addicted to complicating situations
A burden that weighs, and that weight must be endured
They don't tell me, but they make me feel it

I'm the fly in their soup, I'm the moth in their clothes
The wind that never blows in their favor
I'm the scar that embarrasses and makes them hide their faces
I'm their secrets published on the front page

And the day I have to go far away
And end up only in dreams
It may or may not be a comfort
That at least I'll be one less problem
One less problem, one less problem

I'm the obstacle to overcome
The excuse they usually use
To hide their disappointments
I'm what they try to hide
The mirror they don't want to see
All their frustrations

I can smell their fear in the face of my disobedience
I've known for a while that I'm the thorn in their side
And my defense seems somewhat strange
We are hurt by those who love us, not by those who want to hurt us

They see my flaws under a microscope
They see the speck in someone else's eye and not the log in their own
And if my presence bothers them to endure
Then if I don't shine, my absence will

And the day I have to go far away
And end up only in dreams
It may or may not be a comfort
That at least I'll be one less problem
One less problem, one less problem

And the day I have to go far away
And end up only in dreams
It may or may not be a comfort
That at least I'll be one less problem

One less problem, one less problem
One less problem, one less problem
One less problem, one less problem
One less problem, one less problem
