Change


I am not a dollar

Meaning I'm not whole

And knowing this factor

Has really taken it's toll

But no matter how much I try

Whatever I want to be

Fuck everyone elses opinions

I'll just be me

Confused and quirky 

A healthy dose of insane 

Have stranger always guessing

What's going on in my brain

A fanatic for music, film

Love and the arts

Woman and good times

Till my concious won't start

I am change, like the leafs

Constantly a stranger to myself in the past

Growing and rising

Like a ships hardy mast

I am change, like the moon

Getting darker and light

Feeling like a new man

Every single night

I may not be a dollar

Whole and complete

But as long as I'm me

I'll never know defeat
