I sit here and twitch
from the expectations of society
blonde hair, blue eyes, preppy
not me

Different, a freak is what is said
spikes and chains
which stab and tie the minds of perfection
Why am I slowly dieing a comforting pain?

I need some salvation
will a pill help?
maybe, just someone to talk to
but it's too much to ask for me...

Sex when you're married
Alcohol when you're 21
How about sex when you're a teen?
and drowning my sorrows in a shot?

Metal music that crunches and scrapes
is looked down upon as a "drug escape"
but rap is all of a sudden the "cool" thing to do
when drugs and guns are a necessity

What a messed up world eh?
that everyone's minds can be reeked with confusion
over what's right and wrong
weren't we taught to see people from the inside?!

I guess we just nodded our heads and smiled to get it over with
I feel like I'm the only one with a functional brain
which can see the blindness that taints us
and the numbness that pains us

Feeling alone in a crowded room
out of breath in the open air
Individual isn't always the best thing
no one knowing how you feel

Fucked up world
Fucked up mind
Which leads me on and on
but why?
