Anomaly
I was born in the city
But was raised in the country.
Now I'm back in the city
With no desire to leave.
I am an anomaly
Nothing special you see,
I'm simply me.
As i was raised in the contry
I love to be surrounded by trees,
Yet the city life has grown on me,
And I can't leave it behind.
I am an anomaly
Nothing special to see,
I'm simply me.
Alone I become depressed,
Lost in the whirlwind of my thoughts.
But as part of a crowd
I become Anxious and it won't be repressed!
I am an anomaly
Nothing special to see,
I'm simply me.
I have an intellect so high
People said I was destined to be great.
I no longer wish to be that guy.
I simply wish to be happy!
I am an anomaly
Nothing special you see,
I'm simply me.
There are many more examples,
And if still you don't see,
well That's alright.
only I can understand my anomaly.
I am an anomaly
Nothing special to see,
I'm simply me.
I know many won't understand me,
For I am a flowing river
Ever changing with the tide of time.
Just as you are all guilty of that same crime!
I may be an anomaly,
But so are you
Nothing special to see.
A fact grasped by so few,
and yet truly we,
Even those who never knew,
are all in fact our own
ANOMALIES!
