I'm not trying to be like everyone else Following crowds to fit in. I don't need you to make me happy, because your happiness is a weight of lies and loss all on me that I don't want to carry anymore. I don't need to look like you to get noticed. I don't need to talk or dress like you to stand out. because I really won't. It would look just like you and that would bit the purpose of standing out. So maybe I'm the black sheep. Maybe I don't fit in. Maybe you don't like me. So what! At least I know I'm standing out enough for you to notice me and worry about whether you like me or not. So thank you for lifting up my spirit because now I have the energy to be where I once was. On Top Of The World.
