PRAYING TO BE DIFFERENT...

[fire_of_a_poet]

Trying to be different

In a world that's all the same

Living as somebody else

Known by just a name.

Trying to be different

In a world that's tried and true

Learning things the hardest way

How can I just break through?

Trying to be different

In a world that forces me

To be the same, without a name

Why can't I just be me?

Trying to be

Well, aren't you misunderstood. poor you! you have to live in the same world as everybody else.

You really are too judgemental. I'm not misunderstood, I'm just tired of the pressure of today. The skanky clothing, the drugs, the beer, the sex... I'm tired of it being shoved in our faces and giving us the ideas that it's okay and that we're only cool if we do it too. And, in that case, I have chosen to be different than the people who participate. Get over yourself, and stop judging me.

Allow me to apologize. I'm really not such a jackass normally, but making unprovoked, negative comments about my friend pissed me off.

I'll leave you alone now. Good luck in your endeavors.

oh whatever clark.

Someday shes gunna realize her little hyper-expressions of individuality do nothing to stop the shitty society we live in. I know plenty of people who want you to think of them as artists and deep expressive thinkers. failed struggling attempts to overthrow the popular culture. well it sucks, but thats the way it goes. Someday she'll realize she needs to be happy without letting it get to her.

I had a doughnut today. i was happy. mmm. cinnimon! :)
