I&#039;m Nobody. Who are you? Are you Nobody, too?<br /> -Emily Dickinson


Defiant I am
This might be the case
I could be a weirdo
I could play it stright
I could listen to you
But I don't really care
Go on to the cliff's edge
I will meet you there

Suck me down and spit me out
You filled me with doubt
But I did it
I defied you
Overblown and overgrown
Underfed by choice, unknown
By many
Still reliant
But only on myself

Did you even care a bit
When I said "This is my ****"
I could do this, it's my time
Read this, see this, look alive
Is this even worth your sight
Just kidding, I know I'm right
So look down as I rise up
And grimace as I take your cup

You will laugh and you will smle
I told you my plans, you thought me a child
But I did it
I defied you
Not by much, not by a lot
Just by saying this I got
Satisfaction
Defiance

This is the anthem for every young kid
Every teenager who did
Not want to believe in what they see
On the screens so perfectly
Primed and pretty as can be
Defy her and defy them
To our owners I will scream

We're not alone, not unknown
We've got fire so we'll grow
We'll do this
We'll defy you
Cicles circles have no end
Up and down and up again
I'll do this
I'll defy you
Forever.
