Different
Alone in my room
Was feeling so blue
Looked in the mirror
Knew it was true.
-
First day at school
What did I see
10 thousand girls,
None looked like me.
-
Feel like a fool
To be something I'm not
Why should I do this
I'm already hot.
-
The man on TV,
He calls me a freak
Outside its snowing
The world feels so bleak.
-
Know I can change
Mama says I should
But why I ask
I know that I could
-
This is unfair
Not how it supposed to be
Feel like a freak
How can they do this to me?
-
Did I ask for this?
Cant think why
I would want this punishment
Look up and sigh.
-
Look all around
See what is here
Sad people, normal people
And I look in the mirror.
-
My body, my soul
As blue as can be
Its not my fault,
But the blame is on me.
-
Go up the stairs
To cry in my room
See the window
Must be better than doom.
-
Outside I changed,
Into a normal looking girl,
Walked down to the stream
Watched the water whirl.
-
He found me there
Crying by the stream
Opened my eyes
Thought he was a dream
-
"I know who you are,
I know what you do,
Come with me now
Well see this thing through."
-
I was not used to
Being offered a home
Normally I'm out,
All on my own.
-
"Yes!" I cried
"Are you one to,
I don't care about
You why or your who."
-
He gave me a home
He gave me a name
And Ill always remember
The day that he came.
