I never fit the shapes they drew,

Too many colors bleeding through.

They say I’m lost, I say I’m free,

I see the world differently.

They chase gold, I chase the sky—

Tears in my eyes, and that’s just fine.

I speak in feelings, not in facts,

And I’m okay not turning back.

—

They try to fix me, tame my fire,

But I don’t wanna be what they admire.

—

I’m the dreamer—heart on display,

Living loud in a world gone gray.

You can laugh, you can walk away—

But I won’t trade this soul for praise.

Misfit, magic, scars and flame,

I’m not broken—I’m untamed.

I don’t wanna be like you,

And I don’t want to want it too.

—

They move like clocks—I drift like stars,

My rhythm plays on quiet guitars.

I cry at things they never see,

A song, a glance, a memory.

They call it weak, I call it truth,

I’ve kept my heart since I was youth.

If that’s too much, then so be it—

And I won’t change to make it fit.

—

They try to fix me, tame my fire,

But I don’t wanna be what they admire.

—

I’m the dreamer—heart on display,

Living loud in a world gone gray.

You can laugh, you can walk away—

But I won’t trade this soul for praise.

Misfit, magic, scars and flame,

I’m not broken—I’m untamed.

I don’t wanna be like you,

And I don’t want to want it too.

—

I’ve been the echo in their crowd,

Soft and strange, but never loud.

Now I rise in neon bloom—

A dreamer dancing in the gloom.

So let them roll their perfect eyes—

I’ve found my wings in alibis.

I’ll write my name across the sky,

And live, not just survive.

—

Maybe I’m a little too much soul,

But I’m done dimming just to feel whole.

If they can’t see me, that’s okay—

I’m still glowing anyway.

—

I’m the dreamer—heart on display,

Living loud in a world gone gray.

You can laugh, you can walk away—

But I won’t trade this soul for praise.

Misfit, magic, scars and flame,

I’m not broken—I’m untamed.

I don’t wanna be like you,

And I don’t want to want it too.

—

So here I stand, soft and strong—

I was never meant to play along.

I’m the dreamer—that’s my song.
