I just want to go home, but I've never been there
I just want to be blind so I can no longer see the glares
And the stares of the ones who have no care
No regard for me, for anyone else
Being near them too long can be bad for your health
They've decided you're worth's contingent on your wealth
Not even taking the time to learn your true self
They judge you superficially
Almost thinking superstitiousally
They twist around your words more than a muscular dystrophy
You have to be the same if you want to stay sane
You just cannot be a snowflake for them to remember your name
Every aspect of how you're living is like a cookie cutter sheet
Every person is the same, from their head to their feet
Singling out anybody even the slightest bit unique
Making them feel ostracized, depressed, and weak.
They're given an ultimatum: stay unique or conform
And the very next day, it's like they're reborn
They cut their hair, and changed their clothes
Like a dandelion becoming a rose
Looking at them, they're almost unrecognizable
But they've fallen in so well they're almost uncritisizable
So yeah, I understand what you're doing it for
To avoid ridicule, so you can settle the score
You left your friends out in the rain, you just slammed the door
But I will never never understand why you chose not to be one of us anymore.
Sucks.
