Just Me

This is about how everyone wants to be cool instead of being different from the croud

It's always the same story,

Her parents suck,

She's fallen in love,

He's breaking her heart,

Because it's never enough.

 

My story's the same,

but really not.

Sometimes I feel lame,

Sometimes I feel hot.

 

I'm not the "average" girl.

I'm set in my own ways.

I don't follow the crowd,

Because cool changes by the day.

 

When you talk to me,

You may think I'm weird,

but I am who I am,

Sometimes my points get smeared.

 

You may not understand,

because me past is different.

When I needed help,

I couldn't find a hand.

 

So tell me now,

Dose different make me bad??

Tell me how,

everyone seems to be mad.

 

How come people look at me,

As if I'm some sort of nerd??

This is not how it has to be,

When we haven't spoken a word.

 

Why do they like Barbie,

Rather than have my trust??

Why don't they want me,

because my heart has rust??

 

Whether you like it or not,

I'm going to be who I am.

Even if you say I'm not hot,

Even if you create a scam.

 

The way you treat me,

is how I'll treat you.

If you try to boss me,

I'll tell you what to do.

Be true to me,

To you I'll stay true.

 

Just because I'm not like you,

Don't judge my heart.

Just because you think your perfect,

Don't try to make me fall apart.

 

No matter what you do,

Or who you try to make me be,

I'll never be like you,

I'll always be...

Just me.

Right on! This is a good testament to not being a cookie cutter wannabie and being who you really are. There are those who try so hard to be different, but they do it the exact same way everyone else is, so in the end they're still just more of the same. But not you. Stay who you are.

I love being a weirdo & I know where you're coming from...

Woohoo!! Weirdness is awesome, normal is boring. Keep beingyourself, it's more fun and fulfilling.

Pretty lines containing pretty words coming from pretty you to describe something that's just so...lame. You describe something almost everyone has experienced. Nice job dudecake.

Nice statement.
sucks to have to walk amid synthetic humanity and then you have to interact with it.
