Written at 13, so form etc isn't amazing. Very important to me.
You do your best to fit in and play nice
But you're surrounded by people who won't look you twice
You dream of a place where no-one feels down
Or a place you can fly and let go of your frown

Don't listen to people who have no road ahead
Don't be put down by anything they've said
Just hold on tight and dry all your tears
Look inside yourself to your soul and your fears

You try to make friends and get laughed in the face
You retreat to your room and you dream of that place:
A place where there's nothing to keep you from you
A place where your dreams are said to come true

Don't let them in to your mind and your world
Don't let them mock you and don't lie there curled
Stand up and face the reason you scream
Be true to yourself and say 'hi' to your dream.
