WHY CONFORM
The light is on and burning brightly for the masses
side ways glances and awkward stances
fuck you you say I defy categories
i will pass on that and embrace them
ill take the normalcy and conformity
Thats the sacrifice I make
You may call me a sell out but ur the one that bought in
into this trendy nonconformist fashion
how can you begin to ration
looking like every other pre-teen on this new emo-punk, goth scene
Have you truly forgotten what these words used to mean
They used to be a lifestyle not the cover of some magazine
Fuck you
Hot Topic Myspace and facebook and any other medium
which tries to convey this now misunderstood image of that lifestyle today
you commercialized our lives into one candid box
and chained it tight with those glitzy popular locks
Bring back the days where the music would rock
when plad pants and big hair wasn't just stock
so until that day comes i will keep the hawk and the hair neatly cut
the piercings will heal and the make-up will stop
Ill adorn a blue suit and do 9-5 work
YOU CALL ME A SELL OUT
BUT YOU JUST BOUGHT IN
