if i was you and you were me

we might not hate or judge so quickly

but as it stands i am just a man

trapped inside my head

my eyes are mine, and i’m mostly blind

to anyone but me

if you’re not like me

and we don’t agree

just know that you are wrong and i am right

who set the rules for you and i

and why do we abide?

who sets the standard so high

and who gets to define

who the normal people are?

if i was you and you were me

all that we have preconcieved

would seem foolish to believe

if you don’t fit my mold

it doesn’t matter what i’m told

i don’t care to hear or know

if you’re not like me

and we don’t agree

just know that you are wrong and i am right

who set the rules for you and i

and why do we abide?

who sets the standard so high

and who gets to define

who the normal people are?
