Life
   Draining
           Away
              Into
                  The
                     Void
                          
                           Life
                               Falling
                                      into
                                          the
                                             darkness
                                                     that
                                                         eats
                                                             your
                                                                 soul

                                                                      Death
                                                                            Awaits
                                                                                  Darkness
                                                                                          Gloom
                                                                                               Hell
                                                                                                    And
                                                                                                       Doom
                                                                                                            
                                                                                                           Goodbye
                                                                                                                  World
                                                                                                                       I shall
                                                                                                                                See
                                                                                                                                   You
                                                                                                                                      No
                                                                                                                                        More

                                                                                                                                            Last
                                                                                                                                                breathe
                                                                                                                                                       Eyes
                                                                                                                                                            Close
                                                                                                                                                                 It
                                                                                                                                                                    Is
                                                                                                                                                                      Done

They may think I'm crazy
But I don't care
I'm one of a kind
I am who I am
So some people stare

They can't handle
That I'm true to myself
I do not conform
To what the world says is the norm

I stand out
I stretch my limits
I walk my own path

Most people think I am strange
They just laugh

Let them
Doesn't bother me
I'm to real
Blazing trails they fear to tread

Them and their peer pressure
Who needs it
Gives me a headache
Just thinking about it

I may walk alone
but I truly am not alone
I have friends
Friends how understand

I am who I am
I got to be me

Raise your glass
Raise it high
Let there be good cheer
Upon this night

For our troubles
Which hunt us dear
Seem so far
when friends are near

Drink your health
Drink it well
Fun and laughter
Voices swell

Drink
Laugh
Dance
And more
Go tumbling my friends
out the door

Drink until your glass runs dry
You can not walk straight
Nor can I

You say I am ugly
You say I will never fit in

You may be right to a point
I know I'll never be your friend

There are those who like me
Who look passed the outside
To see the true person within

Black
White
Gender
Sexuality
Nationality
Race

Just a few words
They use to separate us
Why

Power
That's why
They know if we keep fighting
Amongst ourselves
They can control us
They can use us

They fear what they don't understand
So they call it evil
And they get everyone on the bandwagon
Like a bunch of suckers

Don't let them use you
Don't let them control you
There is nothing wrong with people who are different

Stand up
Show the world who you are
Don't hold back
Let it all flow

The world tells us to
Sit down and conform
Don't be who you are
You are who we tell you to be

I say
******* WORLD
I am who I am
There is nothing you can do about it
You can't shut me up
You can't put me down

I am human
I am an individual
I am one

I am not a robot
I am not a conformist
I stand up
I stand out

The crowd can just pass on
I follow my own path
Blazing new trails
In uncharted waters

I fight for my right to be me
not just another number in your data banks

The machine is out there churning away
Slowly asserting it's power over the people
You think you have a choice
You don't

The machine conforms
It destroys individualism
It destroys Idealism
You must bend to what it wants
