Sorry I'm not just like you,
Sorry I won't just fade
Into the background, just like the rest;
Sorry I was uniquely made.

Sorry I like the way I am,
Sorry I refuse to change
Into somebody like everyone else;
Sorry that I'm not the same.

Sorry I don't hate my image,
Sorry I won't change my face
Into something of which you'll approve;
Sorry I don't know my place.

Sorry I hold on to what I am,
Sorry I won't be subdued
Into thinking that I can't be my own;
Sorry I don't want to be you.

Sorry I don't blend like you do,
Sorry I have my own thoughts
Sorry I'm special, and a little bizarre,
But mostly I'm sorry you're not.
