You go in public praying to
 blend in to the world around you
Knowing that if you stand out
Others will be sure to tell about
Anything that you offer up
Thats different and not quite good enough
You are the bait they'll jump and grab
Thankful that their boredoms fed
Doing what comes naturally
Makings a fool of you and me
Covering their own naked shame
Hiding behind calling you names
Making you the spectacle in their plot
For other people to like them a lot
Looking intelligent putting you down
Every ringmaster needs a clown.
They look official, accurately right
Pointing out what you want to hide.
Bullies manifest the demons within
By painting you as societies sin
You're not immune but you are free
From underserved tyranny
Its not your fault their idle brains
Are ignorant enough to cause you pain
Stand up if needed and walk away
But don't allow them to ruin your day
Be the voice that silences the lies
Let bullies have no alliby.
