"Joy"

A poem to live by
You hear it all the time
'What are you wearing??'
'Why do you listen to that crap??'
What crap? I listen to honest crime

Blood spilling, jaws snapping
Guts beeding, bones cracking
Screams and hollering of outlandish horror
This beauty is beyond our power

The electric lights of a silvery guitar
The heavy bass drum banging
The melodical darkness surrounding our fears
Reducing our worries to townies and tears

I wear what I want
I do what I want
Because I am free
Don't you see?

You don't control me
I am not a follower of the crowd
Hear this message
Spoken out loud

I am who I am and this you will never change
And to you it probably seems very strange
That I listen to the darkest music that money can buy
But I smile instead of starting to cry

Pleasure and happiness is found in everyone and everything
A selective few on this earth know that
You be one of those people who know this is true and believe what they see
That is why you are the friends of me

I chose you all because of who you are and what you believe
Your personlities are the final product of a perfect match
So, remember this when you are down because the world sits on your shoulders
Be proud to be different
Not down
Not down
Ever
Your mind is free
So let it be
