Differently

People all around me
Trying to change their lives
And do the things they’d like to do
Trying to make it different
So as not to be the same
As me and you
Young folks and old alike
Searching for the center
Of their circling life
Some trying to make me different
Like the day time difference
With the lack of light
But I take cream in my coffee
Sugar, sometimes honey
In my tea
But that’s not all of me
I smile when I’m happy
And the tears that come with pain
Just flow instinctively
So am I different
When I try and do things differently?
People standing on my head
Trying to feel as tall
As they would like to be
But failing ever constant
To begin to see
The human side of me
And what gives me the right
To demand you lived your life
The way I’d like to see
The only different thing about us
Is that different people
Do things differently
As for me, I take cream in my coffee
Sugar, sometimes honey
In my tea
But that’s not all of me
Oh, I smile when I’m happy
And the tears that come with pain
Just flow instinctively
So am I different
When I try and do things differently?
I take cream in my coffee
Sugar, sometimes honey
In my tea
But that’s not all
Oh, I just smile when I’m happy
And the tears that come with pain
Just flow instinctively
So am I different
When I try and do things differently?
