Why?

Why is it so hard?

Why can't I get this right?

I don't want to be treated differently.

Why do I even try?

 

I try to talk, but no one gives me a chance.

I try to be nice, but just one wrong glance

I did something wrong.

 

I don't understand. I'm human just like you.

I can be a good friend too.

Just give me a chance.

 

It's hard enough that I can't look you in the eye

Don't ask me why

Because I don't know why

 

Angels, demons, freaks,

why treat us differently?

Why justify your behavior

with "But they're different from us?"

Just my experience. I'm not speaking for anybody else
