Talking Heads, Moving Mouths, Watching Eyes
Can you hear them?
The voices that tell you how to look.
The whispers of disgust when you ignore them.
Have you seen their faces?
Contorted and disfigured, crooked smiles. They seem ignorant of their true identity, but want you to live thinking their intentions are good.
They're liars! All of them!
Give them an ear, they'll make you one of them. Give them your voice, they'll ignore the beauty and make it like theirs, ugly
fight it, it's who they are and what they want everyone to be. but it's not who you are
Be yourself, it's all you can be, don't be like they would want you to be.
What they want and what you are should be separated
stand alone and make those who want you to change follow.
They practice smiling in the mirror, but you smile all on your own not caring what it looks like to the world. All you know is it makes you feel good, all they know is they think they look good.
Nonsense, all of them snicker and whisper behind your back but you say what you mean when you smile in their faces. Who do they want you to be? Like them, most likely. Like squealing pigs. The whole lot of them.
But remain vigilante and remain beautiful in your individuality. It's a curse word you know. To them we must be like them cause to them their ugliness is beautiful. Individuality is like the middle finger in their faces. Unless you seek their approval it's not acceptable to them.
Don't listen to their lies! Be like you are not as they'll have you be, and do not let go of who you are or who you strive to be. Even in their inacceptance of you, you belong to nobody yet you belong to everyone as you are not as they would have you be. Embrace your individuality
Can you hear them laughing? They sound like sheep as they follow each other's fashions and point at the ones with their own with distain. why Do you accept this? Do you seek their acceptance? Nor do I my friend
Nor do I.......
