I'm fighting off this disease
The vile plague of conformity
Leaves me with a mental fleshwound
Small price to pay to keep my humanity

Don't want to look like you
Don't want to act like you
Because when I do
I'll be truly dead and only a fool

This is where you hung the truth
About your convictions
Set it aside to follow the words
Of a lying world
This is where you believe in
Pointless predictions
Made by magazines with photographs
Of three-headed girls

In the end when you're dead
Will your contributions cease to matter
Did you break new ground
Or did you follow the accepted pattern?

Don't want to feel like you
Don't want to be like you
Because when I do
I'll have truly died and become the fool
Do you know what waits between the shadows?
It's where you hide the facts
That you don't want to hear
The mask you wear is being grafted on your soul
And ignorance is truly something to fear
Don't want to look like you
Don't want to act like you
Don't want to feel like you
Don't want to be like you
Don't want to look like you
Don't want to act like you
Don't want to feel like you
Don't want to be like you
Because when I do
I'll have truly died and become the fool
