People play in sunlight
I play in the dark
Everyone turns right
I turn left
Everyone loves being the same
I stand out
Girls like pink and purple
I like green and black
Some like cats and dogs
I like wolves and ravens
Girls wear skirts and high heels
I wear frayed jeans and boots
People like summer and spring
Sunny and warm weather
I like winter and autumn
cloudy and cold weather
I see people everyday
They act like everyone else
Look like everyone else
While I stand here
Being different
Showing myself

The author's comments:
Maybe not everyone, but a lot of people do follow the sheeple (meaning they follow the crowd like sheep). I also like foxes but I didn't want to break the style I was going for.
