Neglect, neglect, neglect
Dress me up to impress
Impress the family!
Impress the friends!
Tell them all about my talents, the long list of nothing
Talk about my school, my grades,
Skip over the person I wanna grow to be
Cut out my dreams, skim right over my hobbies
Throw them all in the trash like you do the rest

Lets just do this your way, I'll be what you want me to be
Finish school with honors, go off to college, marry a rich man, stay home and have kids
That's what you want right?
Me to be normal, live a normal life
Who likes being normal?
Who likes living the same old fashioned life style?

I'll follow my idols, my heroes
I'm going to do what makes me happy, follow my dreams
Come up with all the little schemes
One day, I'll get up in front of the crowd, sing my heart out
While they sing it right back to me
Prove to the ones who once spit upon and tried to crush my dreams
I can be whoever I want to be, if I try

Not anymore, no not anymore will you hold me back
You can't dress me up like a Barbie
Control be like a puppeteer
Your not my master, your not in charge
There's no way you'll take over me.

Neglect, neglect, neglect
When will you get over yourself?
Will you ever get that I'm not perfect?
I'm not one to follow the crowd, or to try very hard
But when it comes to my goals, I'll put forward all my hopeless endeavor
You'll never get in my way, not again, not this time

Not this time.

This morning, I felt like shit.
By the afternoon, I felt better, happier.
Right now it's nighttime, in feel like I did this morning.

Wonderful.
