Untitled No 1
They ask people what's wrong with me
And they always stare
I just want to be free
Doesn't anybody care?
Everyday I lay here
Wishing away the pain
They don't know what I fear
I'm sure they think I'm insane
So many times I must say
"Leave me alone"
The price they'll have to pay
For attempting to turn me into a clone
I try to dodge their stares
When they say I don't belong
Here in this world of theirs
So now I say so long
