Be the same,

Being different. Focus on that, it's the only thing that will separate you in this world. Everything has changed now, being an individual was no longer excepted, we all have to be the same, be normal. Why the same? rebellion was happening people wern't excepted so things had to change. They made us change into people we were not, blonde hair becomes brown and clothes become gray and boring. We all spoke the same language, sang the same songs, read the same books, believed in the same religion, lived the same life. Everyone was hypnotized into believing, into thinking being the same was right. Well, I was different I couldn't be the same, I would never be the same. I had to live my life as a lie, behind closed doors I was me, the old me. The person who loved to be different, but very little time did i get to be me. Deep down, I can see in every one's eyes, that they want to be who they really are. Wishing they could go back in time and pause, to the way it used to be.

Under the lights of the dark street, I see what i see everyday. People, marching down the street in a direct line. Everyone with a straight face, not a smile in miles. Couldn't the government see we were suffering, we liked being diffrent, just let us work out our diffrences. As the march by I smell, the smell we were all forced to wear, the stench of it stung my nose. I had chosen to pay the price and smell like nothing, instead of the musky stink they call perfume. the same straight edge hair cut all those girls have, boy did I hate that hair cut, buzz cuts for the guys. All the buildings were the same, grey bricks with blue doors, if we wanted a hat it was a baseball cap of course grey. Life was diffrent then I wanted it to be, I couldn't describe my feelings for the day. I was never diffrent anymore, I never had fun anymore I sure miss the old days. But maybe relbelion will start again , maybe we can go back to being unique. I'm drifting off to sleep, and I understand that maybe I can be the same as everyone its time to except my fate
