We are a part of a sea of faces.
Society says “Coexist, but don’t let the walls down.”
Everyone to his own, and keep to yourself.  
Normalcy exists only if your problems become
secrets in the closet, shut and locked.
Ignore and be ignored.
This is our life.

Souls cry for someone to look behind the curtain
See the heart shrouded in hidden secrets
Unshared joy, pain, life:
Waiting to be understood

We fight to live by the rules of a society that could never exist
fit in with us or stay away is the anthem
A battle cry against anyone who dares to challenge

People covered by issues,
turned into monsters in the eyes of the world
Bombarded by standards they can’t meet.

Souls begging to be seen past the scales,
Underneath the rough exterior is your neighbor
Human, longing for what is “normal”

Take for granted what she will seek but never find:
acceptance, sanction and love

And as we shun,
They slowly die
Our callous hearts kill,
but as we kill, we die.
for no one is free,

The issues in our own hearts
will poison our blood
we say they are messed up,
but we are the same!

Our only pride is that we can hide it,
but our souls know better,
accusing us of what we don’t want to admit.

We have always been flawed.

And as we cry our denial,
the world slowly dies.

A few strong rise to the top,
we will not let this conquer us!
We will defy the odds,
Come out stronger.

We have met our secret weapon.
And with him at our side,
we conquer our fears
Truth, real Truth has set us free.

And as we yell our battle cry,
we see that we must spread this Knowledge

And so we set out, one battle down, and on to win the War.
