i just recently heard the song "i'm a fake" by the used and i can honestly say that it was the stupidest, most degratible song ever. all it is is about cutting. i needed to write a counter song for it. cutting is beyond stupid.

A CRY FOR CONFORMITY
I am so stressed out
Because of what Becky said
What should I do now?
Bert says I should flirt with death
My arms covered in medals
About how my life’s so hard
A flower without petals
Acceptance with a scar

I dwell on drama instead of
Things that really matter
I need a reminder of how bad
Things can be once I get better
There are forces taking away my rights
But I’d rather worry for something I’ll forget about
In a matter of minutes
I want to fit in, and smart kids stand out

I’m only fifteen, but I
Know this is what I have to do
I need to scar myself over
What won’t matter in a year or two
And I’ll push away those friends that tell me
What I’m doing is wrong
Only to realize that, in the end
They cared about me all along

I dwell on drama instead of
Things that really matter
I need a reminder of how bad
Things can be once I get better
There are forces taking away my rights
But I’d rather worry for something I’ll forget about
In a matter of minutes
I want to fit in, and smart kids stand out

Well I’m too scared to try to change the world
So I depend on teenage angst
And when it gets too much for me
I do what’s cool and lacerate
My arms covered in medals
About how my life’s so hard
A flower without petals
Acceptance with a scar

I dwell on drama instead of
Things that really matter
I need a reminder of how bad
Things can be once I get better
I don’t care about the long run
All I care is what I see
I don’t want any help
This is a cry for conformity
