Dont Yell at Me
Breaking Chains of Anguish: Melody Lee Hayden's Emotional Odyssey
Lyrics
I'm not the one who put you down
I am not responsible for putting you down.
I'm not the one who screams and shouts
I am not the one who expresses anger loudly.
And I'm not the one who embarrassed you
I am not the person who caused you embarrassment.
And I'm not the one who let you down
I am not the one who disappointed you.
So why oh why
Expressing confusion about the reasons for being yelled at.
Why do you yell at me
Repeating the question, emphasizing the confusion about being yelled at.
Why do you yell at me
-Why do you yell at me

-I'm not the one who held you down
I am not the person who restrained or held you down.
I'm not Im not the one

I'm not the one who pushed you round
I am not the one who physically forced you around.
I'm not I not the one
Stating the denial of being the person who did certain actions.
I'm not the one who locked you out
I am not the one who excluded you or kept you outside.
I'm not I not the one

I'm not the one who can't figure you out
I am not the one who cannot understand you.
