You can see it in their eyes Shifting back and forth You can hear it in their lies, Spilling from their lips First from their minds to their mouth then to the floor Breaking me down till I’m not much more I am not just a person But the more that I show that I’m different, that I am me There onions worsen What’s wrong with society And soon the others join them I must admit, they look like they’re having fun Making me, making us feel sad alone and dumb But I guess some of us were made to stray from society’s light In order to be who, we are So I’m stuck in an agonizing ongoing fight Between conformity, happiness and reason

You can see it in their eyes Shifting back and forth You can hear it in their lies, Spilling from their lips First from their minds to their mouth then to the floor Breaking me down till I’m not much more I am not just a person But the more that I show that I’m different, that I am me There onions worsen What’s wrong with society And soon the others join them I must admit, they look like they’re having fun Making me, making us feel sad alone and dumb But I guess some of us were made to stray from society’s light In order to be who, we are So I’m stuck in an agonizing ongoing fight Between conformity, happiness and reason
