This place is too good
The honors too great.
The Best of the Best
The Best and the Brightest.
That’s what they said.
I don't know why I like the things I do,I especially don't know why you disapprove.
The moment I smile and claim my happiness,
Here. Impress me.
Take your appearance and character
And put it under a stress sheet
It's light enough to ignore
But it keeps away the best heat
It puts up an impenetrable wall
Why do I do things
when I get hurt in the end?
Why share my ideas
then get betrayed by "friends"?
We all know life is complicated,
But I'm so out of place.
My mind continues to wander
In completely unorthodox ways.
I'm tired of living "normal"
And following everyone else's traditions,
Powerful words, brokenhearted prayers.
Realistic hopes lost in a sea of deep dreams.
Everlasting adoration mixed with eternal anguish.
Colorful curses shared in times of trial.
This one’s for me
Listen well until I’m done
Make sure you reread, until the problem’s gone
You see, I don’t seem to understand
‘Cause up till now, never tried to take a stand
If I died tomorrow, I
don't know if I would be proud of who
I am today.
[pause] Allow me, to explain,
we have been told over and over again,
that we should live freely within our constraints-
I couldn't tell you what I did last night.
Tell you what I fear or what I Like.
tell you that im confused or angry,
because i know that what I feel, you cant see.
I know that you would look but not see me.
