Here I am,
and here I stand,
from the 'in" crowd,
I've been banned.
My names are "weird", and "odd"
but the freaks are the ones who I applaud.

Here I am,
and here I stand,
with make-up that's weird
and clothing unlike your brand.
Loud as my voice may be,
I'm behind a curtain they've created for me.

Here I am,
and here I stand,
with an amazing boyfriend,
who saw who I am.
Hand in hand he lead the way,
and showed me that being myself is okay.

"They would love you...
if only they knew..."
but they won't
for I'm not in their crew.

Here I am,
and here I stand,
behind their curtain,
that's much too grand.
But the curtain is not mine to hold,
for this "curtain" is simply their eyes, I'm told.

Content and happy I'll forever be,
because of Monami,
who allowed me to be...
me.
