By your Dutchess harleyxqueen.

I'm tired of the labels. I'm tired of it all.

Emo, Goth, Prep.

They can all fuck off.

They try too hard to fit in.

They try too hard to be thin.

They try too hard to pass it off.

But you don't get anything out of it, after all.

"Hey look at me! I'm a freaking prep!"

No the fuck you're not. You're a lunatic.

"Hey guys look here! I'm a scene kid!"

You may be that but you look like a freak kid.

Everywhere I fucking go, traveling to-and-fro

I hear is labels being tossed around

they're being juggled by a clown.

Since when did being yourself ever stop being cool?

They buy all these clothing to wear to school.

Then look at their friends and laugh

they all wore the same thing to class.

You can be yourself, you know.

You don't have to label yourself, you know.

Or maybe you do, I don't know.

So now I'm pacing the room to-and-fro

Trying to know how this is going to go.

So I go to the mall and invite some friends

of the other tasks and errands.

We shop till we drop and our wallets pop

then we walk through town and everyone look at us alot.

Then when I get home I look in the mirror

I started to see what I've became.

Nothing has changed, we all looked the same.

But if I don't do it

will look at me like I'm deranged.

Maybe that's how fashion got it's name.

Because inside we all play the poser game.

Or maybe not, I don't know.

I'm still passing the room to-and-fro.

A/N:

I didn't write this to bash different fashion scenes, I wrote this to bash the people who are always saying "IM [insert fad here]!!!!111oneoneonexDDDINVADERZIMFOLYFE111!!!"

Okay, maybe that was an over-exaggeration but yeah you get the point.
