Poem
It's ok when nobody sees you it's ok when nobody knows you searching as you do for someone to find you six billion souls all living alone Disconnection segregation so many fact-finding their own impossible favoritism The diluted things the pretty things the acceptable compensation But it's ok you don't fit in peg in the square whole covered in skin it's ok everyone knows you have no feelings you're voice is lost nobody hears you six billion souls all desperately seeking eleven billion meanings Cut you're split from the world around you nobody is there to understand you you can't connect inside your head all the dross and the rubbish you just can't accept It's ok they say the world is hard the same old story they themselves have heard life's not easy somethings will never change they say and so the world never changes anyway But that's ok The blunt chisels will knock off your sharp edge and you'll money 'n roll to the tune of what everyone else said and you'll end up in pieces just like mum and dad and you'll vaguely remember rebellion was once the only thing you had Will you join the race live your life at their own frantic pace and forgetfully forget that something was there something rare something different something you felt to be true something individual about you It's ok they say the world is hard and it's always the same old story they themselves have too often heard somethings will never change they say and so they never change and the world stays the same to this day Is that ok
