they tell me
i must be
misunderstood
and i say
that’s not it
that’s not me
not doing this
for sympathy
not doing this
for attention
like you may think i am
i don’t know
what to be
i don’t know
how to be
the real me
i’m not trying
to be cool
when i’m not
i’m just trying
to be me among the others
they call me fast
they call me a fiend
they say i lie
but that’s just me
what am i supposed to be?
according to you
i’m perfect or i’m not
your greatest generation
looks pretty bad now
but they don’t even say that
this is the truth
and it’s not a lie
when i say
that you make me cry
all the time
i try to be
and it’s too much
for you and them
is it not the end?
’cause it feels like it is
i am not trying
to be someone i’m not
i am just me, the real one at that
you tell me i’m done
you tell me it’s over
but this is the great adventure…
To be Continued…
