Hey again :)

I'm not massively proud of this song, but it's still really special to me because of what it means.

I've always been a lot smaller than other people my age due to reasons I'm not gonna go into here (go read my rant book if you want to know more, I think I go into it there) and I've always been made fun of for that. People have shouted stuff at me in the corridors or one time of a classroom I was walking past. When I was in year 8 (age 12-13 if you don't live in the uk) and went to a choir concert my primary school was doing, some kids asked me if I was in year 3 and 4 (age 7-8 and 8-9). So I've grown up always being super insecure about my height, to the point where I wouldn't want to be seen around school because I felt like everyone was judging me. 

So this song is basically about how I've never understood why how tall you are is such a big deal. I basically took the insult 'midget' and used midget gems which I think are an american sweet (i really hope im not wrong about that otherwise this song just sounds stupid-) to show that even if you're small you can still make the whole place shimmer <3 

Anyways here's the song :)

I wish I knew,

Why being different is a crime,

I was lying in the dark,

Wishing on a star,

For things to change,

But I'm just stuck in reverse.

And I know,

I'm not perfect,

Better than I know my own name,

But still you tell me,

And tell me,

And tell me.

Do you feel so small,

That you have to shove others down,

So you can grow?

And if I'm not tall,

Don't you realise that I'm just a clown,

Without my shoes,

And you can call me a midget,

If it makes you feel bigger,

But I think that I'm more of a midget gem.

And if it's true,

That we are better off the same,

Then I will change my face,

And change my name,

'Cause nothing about me,

Is anything like you.

And I know,

I'm subservient,

Better than I know my mistakes,

But still you tell me,

And tell me,

And tell me.

Do you feel so small,

That you have to shove others down,

So you can grow?

And if I'm not tall,

Don't you realise that I'm just a clown,

Without my shoes,

And you can call me a midget,

If it makes you feel bigger,

But I think that I'm more of a midget gem.

Every day,

I look in the mirror,

And wonder why I can't be giant like you,

Perfect and tall,

Better than them all,

And every day,

I think to myself,

Maybe I'm not meant to be like you.

You make me feel so small,

When you try to shove me down,

To the ground,

Maybe I'm not tall,

But don't you realise I'm just a clown,

Without my shoes,

And you can call me a midget,

If it makes you feel bigger,

But I think that I'm more of a midget gem.

I hope you liked it :)
