They say
Everyone wants to fit in
Everyone wants to be accepted
But that's not right
'Cos that's not why I fight!
I'm told
That I should let people in
And let them see
Who I am
But then I'm told
That I'm not allowed to be me
I just want to be seen
The way I see myself
But they don't believe
"Put this show on the shelf."
