Black Sheep

Yes you are different for sure
From photo of this smiling child.
Your eyes have changed but even more
Have changed ideas in your mind.
Your hair is yet to become grey
Like touched by winter, dying tree.
"There's people suffering" - they say
"And you are lucky to be free."

"Why can't you just pretend to be
The one who's happy on outside?
Stop troubling your head, you see
Just go and do the thing that's right.
Stop overcomplicating life,
And do the job that suits you best
Stop searching things you'll never find
One day you'll get your promised rest."

And yet somehow you don't believe
In promises of paradise
Somehow you still don't want to live
Pretending that it's them who's right
Though maybe life is just a dream
And you are one in its background.
You want to go against the stream
And they can't make you turn around
