This is Different
Top to bottom you’re different from others
We are a light
One that shines or one that darkens
You’re you
You’re them
We are us
But one tear
One smile
The dark clouds can destroy
The bright stars are destroyed
That heavy coat around your shoulders
Is getting worse by the minute
So you say
But your mind is far beyond that
So the color of your skin
Or the size of your feet
Does not explain who you are
You are you
You are them
We are us
