The Same
Frances McCanless
I've always had a different drummer
I've always felt a little stronger
I've always known that I was free -
Free to be what I wanted to be
I was always different but the same
Always alone without a name
Always stood out in a crowd
Always there – but not allowed
Always crying from the heart
Always there but not a part
Always wondering what it would be
To be like someone other than me
Always away but here again
Always alone but with a friend
Always afraid but very strong
Always sad - but singing a song
