So Different
You don't like the clothes I wear
the way I style my hair
or even the color of my underwear
You've mistaken me
if you think I care
You don't like the words I say
the way I live my life from day to day
or even the sports I play
But you've got it all wrong
if you think I'll go away
If putting me down
makes you feel good
then by all means insult me
the best you can
I'd do the same if I could
but I don't think I should
Seeing as how
I don't like to see people cry
I'd feel too guilty
Looking at you though
I don't think the same morals apply
So you don't like my hair
or the clothes I wear
and I guess you can't stand
how my skin is so fair
but your opinions are neither here nor there
You don't like the things I say
The way I look past you from day to day
I'm sorry but your game isn't something I want to play
seeing as how you get off on seeing other people's pain
You're wrong if you think I'll sit and stay
And your orders aren't something I'll obey
It's fine if you don't like me
I'm not too fond of you
Just one day I hope that you see
the harm you choose to do
