Dear Conformity

Dear conformity

I wish you didn't have a hold on me

'Cause I know I feel so much more like me

When you're not around

Dear conformity

Your consequences sink in with their teeth

Before I know it I'm just somebody

Lost inside the crowd

Confused by your ruse

Can't find a motive

You're making me choose

And you know it

You know that

I could take the road less traveled

Pave my way with different gravel

And I could call it brave, you'd say that I'm lonely

But at least I'd really know me

Dear conformity

I run the risk of letting you clip my wings

And singing over all my melodies

If you stick around

We all know it's true

No songbirds sing exactly the same tune

The individuality I knew

Gets harder to pursue

Confused by your ruse

Can't find a motive

You're making me choose

And you know it

You know that

I could take the road less traveled

Pave my way with different gravel

And I could call it brave, you'd say that I'm lonely

But at least I'd really know me

I could take the road less traveled

Pave my way with different gravel

And I could call it brave, you'd say that I'm lonely

But at least I'd really know me

(I'd really know me)

And I know that I'm brave, go head say it's lonely

But at least I really know me
