YoU nEveR kNoW

by D - Cancer


my father thinks i like nsync
my mother thinks that i like pink
i wear all black day in/day out
yet people still ask me about
whether i simply like the look 
or if it implies i'm a crook
they all believe clothes are a mask
reflecting peoples destined tasks
you wear a trench-coat and you're a goth
don't matter if you won't harm a moth
and noone really gives a fuck
wear a clover, you're labeled 'luck'
they won't believe i don't eat meat
because of the shoes on my feet
does simply wearing fake snakeskin
really make it some kind of sin?
they think that i can not love God 
because of my outer facade
and they don't realize they're the ones
who make us break out all the guns
it is hard to put up with this
be tormented for liking KISS
i dont bug you for wearing yellow
some of you could be good fellows
if you'd open up your narrow minds
it wouldn't leave you in a bind
wouldnt kill you to once say
hello to someone you think is gay
how can you judge someone you've never known?
you could be alike down to the bone
so next time dont just gawk and stare
take a breath and walk over there
say hello to the freak wearing all black
they'll most likely be polite back
just try it out and you will see
how nice some people can really be
you might be surprised; take it from me.
