So you say,
I'm weird,
Well that's just fine;
So you say,
I'm different,
But at least I'm mine;
So you say,
I'm a loser,
Well my friends are true;
So you say,
I should change,
Be more like you;
Now you say,
I am special,
But it just feels wrong;
Now you say,
I'm so cool,
When I'm singing your song;
But I say,
This isn't me,
This monster woman;
So I say,
I give up,
It's me that I am.
