I looked down as they turned left
They saw green and I saw red
Life's an oddity in itself
I imagine perfect health
But they looked at me
And saw something else
Guess I was too different
I saw grace and beauty in them
They cut harder into their skin
I fell silent and watched it slip by
Tears cascaded as I did cry
They said you should be the same
And we'll absolve you of all blame
But I challenged their system
Caught them off their guard
They fought back and came down hard
I was lonely, torn to shreds
I spent days inside my head
I made some friends who already lived their
Gave the others quite a shock scare
Why was it that I was so abnormal
Couldn't I just shut up and act formal
Ok, stay crazy, that's alright
Just pretend you're fine while you're in the spotlight
They said you should be the same
And we'll absolve you of all blame
But I challenged their system
Caught them off their guard
They fought back and came down hard
Far from beaten, I came back in full force
But they anticipated that of course
Mentally I was made unstable
Died at age 12, now a fable
The next two years they were uncertain
I got ready to call the curtain
But one November morning
I once more ignored their warning
I found them, they're almost just like me
And at long last I was happy
They said you should be the same
And we'll absolve you of all blame
But I challenged their system
Caught them off their guard
I had won this round for sure
They saw green and I saw red
Life's an oddity in itself
I imagine perfect health
But they looked at me
And saw something else
Guess I was too different
I saw grace and beauty in them
They cut harder into their skin
I fell silent and watched it slip by
Tears cascaded as I did cry
They said you should be the same
And we'll absolve you of all blame
But I challenged their system
Caught them off their guard
They fought back and came down hard
I was lonely, torn to shreds
I spent days inside my head
I made some friends who already lived their
Gave the others quite a shock scare
Why was it that I was so abnormal
Couldn't I just shut up and act formal
Ok, stay crazy, that's alright
