• Look at you and look at me,
    Is there a difference that you see?
    You say I'm dirty, unclean and rude,
    But then... What are you?

    The one who says these words that hurt,
    That brand my skin with hate.
    I simply wish to be myself,
    But you just shoot me down.

    Theres no difference in us two,
    Not really if you look.
    I am me and you are you,
    Both just trying to be ourselves.

    I wonder why theres so much hate,
    When all we really need is love.
    Its what everyone is searching for,
    We just express in different ways.

    So I look at you and think,
    Is she the way she comes off in what she says?
    Or is she just hiding behind a mask,
    Trying to be strong?

    I'm done being, anything but me.
    I am me and you are you.
    Different yet the same.
