Anti-normalcy

In the halls of normalcy I seek
A refuge from the quotidian of which I speak.
The life offered to us leaves me in denial
Why for my actions, am I put on trial?
To be judged for being who I am
For doing the things I do
Why am I to be damned
Can't you treat me the way you would treat you?

Are you so insecure to derogate my difference
Are you afraid to prove your lack of original influence?
You dare speak of me in your curses
And would still resent mention of your derogation in my verses?

Well normal person, here I damn you and condemn you: without face.
To be one of the crowd and indistinct, without feature.
While I shall be reveling in my unique soul maybe with or without grace
But I am still better than you, normal creature.

An old Linkin Park-esque song I wrote

Mike Shinoda: (Chester Bennington)

I see myself fading away
Afraid and embarrassed
That I won't lay

Down my arms and (just give up)
Its the pain
that takes you down and
(Fucks you up)
Makes you frown
(At the sadness)
That you see
(its the madness)
Don't you wanna be free.
Not good to live on betrayal
To forget your friends and bail.

Ch: You see such beauty
(then its all gone)
You see such life
(then its all gone)
You see the entirety
(then its all gone)
You thought you saw it
(but you were all wrong)
All wrong (Wrong! x2 )

I can't take this anymore
(You can crush me now)
Or you can make me soar
I'm tired of the issues (you can't ignore)
One day I'm gonna walk (right out the door)
You might beg and cry and plead
(For some forgiveness) for your deed
Don't break out the waterworks
Won't work on me
Try another soul
I'm gone and I'm free.

Ch.

(I'm losing the battle in your mind
I'm trying to be upfront
But I'm left behind
I'm breaking into the pieces, I'm broken
Where are the words you wish were spoken?)

Ch. x 2 (fade out)
