The Mold

Why can't you just fit in?

I've heard time and time again.

Why can't you be like everyone else

with trophies lining the shelves

be beautiful, be thin

be a star always win

Why oh why can't you just fit in?

I want to be seen for who I am

I want to do more than just think I can.

Rise up and be myself

not worry about anything else.

Size doesn't matter

not my ability, or strength

Why is there so much pressure to match the wave length?

I want to be loved for what's inside

For my soul, my beauty, and my pride.

My laugh and my smile

my drive to go the extra mile.

Shining like the sun.

not fading once more to the back

never again disappearing against the black

Now I need you most. I'll hold on forever.

You show me you love me with every endeavor.

I know you care. You died for my soul.

I will never stray or let you go.

You've never asked me why can't I just fit in.

you simply accept me again and again.
