It's not me...
Maybe it's not me
Could I be the normal one
That single almost perfect pearl
Rounded by nature
If so, then why am I
Surrounded by nothing but irregular ones
It's not the company I keep
It's about how the standards have been lowered
in order to maintain a sense of normal
I see the glass as half full
You don't even see the glass
Far too many feel entitled
To what and why?
Your self loathing, self-serving and fail at most everything you do
Following a simple instruction is beyond your intellectual grasp
Yet it's never you fault
So...
Maybe it's not me
I'm trying to understand why I need to understand your madness
How did you become the norm and me the outsider
I'm forced to hide in the shadows
mocking you but...
You wouldn't know that
Facebook is your New York Times
All the news that's unfit to print
Your lives are a public forum
Problem is ...
You see nothing wrong with that
So again, How did it get to be me
Medicating me in any fashion
will not change the facts
I'm strong and have a sense of purpose
YOU are a figment of your imagination
The question remains
Or...
Would this be a statement
It's not me
Could I be the normal one
That single almost perfect pearl
Rounded by nature
If so, then why am I
Surrounded by nothing but irregular ones
It's not the company I keep
It's about how the standards have been lowered
in order to maintain a sense of normal
I see the glass as half full
You don't even see the glass
Far too many feel entitled
To what and why?
Your self loathing, self-serving and fail at most everything you do
Following a simple instruction is beyond your intellectual grasp
Yet it's never you fault
So...
Maybe it's not me
I'm trying to understand why I need to understand your madness
How did you become the norm and me the outsider
I'm forced to hide in the shadows

You wouldn't know that
