I seem to of lost my way somewhere,
Perhaps I burned one too many,
Or simply just wandered off the beaten path.

Yes, I do believe I am lost here,
Among you all in your society,
A veil of normal is covering the landscape.

Your eyes pierce through the “Strange” like a hot knife to butter,
Poking and prodding like an overly-curious toddler,
Speaking of shame to me like I do not know.

I do not belong here amongst you,
Not anywhere near the norm anyway,
This is all just too foreign for me.

I crack my pretend smile,
Light up my eyes just a little,
And lie to you with all of my heart.

Another awesome write!drinker

I can never handle that feeling when
eyes pierce "my" strange...
it shakes me to the core.

Very few "belong" F&L... er, 'tis what I think.
I'd rather spend time with the ones that see the
veil;
as opposed to the ones that don't recognize
that their smiles aren't pretend...
as they lie.
That ain't normal...

I feed off it, go ahead...Put me on center stage, I'm about to f* this s* up.

But I'm a nihilist, I really do not belong...If a scale existed I would most definitely be nowhere near it. Of course, the point is that there is no scale and that I'm really no different than any of you.

Alas though, that won't matter much either...I'll still ride the social coattail on a red carpet. That's fine too, I love it over here.
