I Am Myself

you think i'm wierd
just because i'm different
you think i'm odd
cause i'm not like you
you and your friends
all point and laugh
day after day 
so what do i do
i sit and i take it
as much as i can
but sometimes i wish
that someone would 
just take me by the hand
and accept me 
for who i am

cause i am myself
and thats who i'll be
always and for ever
for eternity 
and there will always be
some one on the other hand
making fun of me
with their best friend
maybe one day
i'll be able to say
just dont mess with me today

today i sat alone like usual
i tried not to fidget i tried to be normal
i thought maybe some one
would sit by me
if i was as normal as i could be
but iy never works
i just get my feelings hurt
and then i remember......

i am myslelf.
