Why?

What did I do?

To deserve this

I was born

I fell in love

I wanted to be normal

I couldn't

I did nothing wrong

But I was shunned

Beaten

By words and fists

By stares

I did nothing wrong

I lived

Or tried to

But you hate me

Why?

Why do you hurt me?

Why am I not accepted?

Why do I have to live like this?

Underground

Alone

Afraid

Why?

Because I look different

On the outside

Twisted

Deformed

Ugly

A monster

I am just like you

But my beauty is inside

Your beauty is out

My ugliness is outside

Yours is in

We're not so different

But you fail to see me

For what I truly am

A musician

A genius

A man

No

I am a monster in your eyes

Because you don't see me

For me

And I will be alone

Forever

Because of you

Your hatred

Narrow-minds

Refusal

But I don't want to be alone

I don't want my fate

I don't want to be shunned

And hated

Beaten

I want…

Love

But I cannot have it

Why?
