Normal is Boring Doing the Same Routine Daily Everybody dresses the same Its like playing an old game of Follow the Leader One that never ends We all go this way Or that way Never one in one direction And another in the other But today someone broke the spell Somebody went the other way They decided to be themselves They wore black when everyone else was wearing blue He wore sweats when the crowd wore skinny jeans She was Different One after another People awoke They feel from the sky A cold rain that soon turned into a puddle A puddle of individuals People who weren't the same Some wore red Some wore heels Some wore sneakers Some had gages Some had afros Some were pale And some were Pale Some came out of the closet And admitted being gay Some spoke of supporting the Bi's But they all had one thing in common They were human Just like me And just like you They all had minds And they were finally being used To create their own path To do what they wanted And what they loved What made them happy in the end They did what they thought mattered the most
