They call me different.

They think I'm weird, when I'm simply independent.

They take my views, and spit upon them.

Make fun of me when I have an accent from living in London.

The thought that me being me is brave-- hasn't even dawned on them.

To wake up in the morning, now a chore.

That even the most fun tasks I don't do anymore.

Because I feel abused, and mis-used, and if I could choose..

I would be someone else.

Sometimes it isn't fun being, "The weird guy who paints his nails".

It's to a point of depression.

But with this pain, I will learn a lesson.

Do you really hate me now? Sorry, just checkin'.

I feel like I was flying high, when suddenly I crashed.

I feel like my heart has turned to complete ash.

I feel as if my skin is made from paper, and my bones are glass.

But I can't complain, it could be worse.

Even when life kind of seems like a curse.
