Striving for Perfection

Striving for perfection,
In this superficial world.
Straining to live up to an unfair standard,
And never really making it.

There are those who don�t care about labels,
Heroes of individuality.
And what happens to them?
They�re ridiculed for being different.

Good can come from that though.
That�s the time when your true self really shows.
When the warrior within is put to the test,
To prove that you won�t end up like all the rest.

Preps, Goths, Stoners alike,
All possess a common fear.
The fear that they won�t survive,
From things so far,
From people so near.
