You laugh at me for being different.
I chose the life of open mind and imagination
While you go through every day, feeling bored and unhappy
Your immaturity by making fun of differences
Talking down to someone
Deep down, don't be afraid to admit
That it scares you to be odd
To open the door towards the other half of the mind.
Who are you to think that normality is the best part of life because it's "safer" and you have more friends and popularity.
You are so wrong
You are so blinded
You complain about not having good story ideas
Yet, you ask about how do I come up with such strange ideas.
It's not from drunken faded nights
Or drugs at all
I am not the kind
The imagination is natural
Because a smart and sweet person once said:
"When you think like a child, you're imagination is free."
There is time to be an adult and mature
But, it is time where your imagination benefits
So go ahead and laugh and be immature
But the weirdos can go farther in life
Than the ones who think in the box.
Rip the box apart
Tear it to shreds!
Let the dreams, nightmares, absurd thoughts of what a young child would think
A time before you knew such knowledge and all you had was stories that your mother or father would read to you at night
The mind can be a window to such greatness
So why are certain people afraid to come into contact with imagination?

Adolescent peer crowds such as Punks and Goths are mainly identified by their strikingly unusual or even shocking appearances. Although many studies find these crowds, few have tried to explain why some youths take on these startling or shocking appearances. We hypothesized that an off-putting appearance is a way to cope with behavioral inhibition by limiting social contacts. Using data from 1,200 7th–11th graders, we compared peer crowds characterized by their startling appearance (“Radical” crowds) with three theoretically relevant comparison groups. Results showed that youths affiliating with Radical crowds were more inhibited than other youths, including those in crowds previously shown to be shy or socially anxious. Inhibited Radicals, however, had poorer emotional adjustment than inhibited youths in other crowds. If Radical styles are a way for inhibited youths to cope by limiting social contacts, the strategy does not seem to be beneficial for emotional adjustment.
