My heart beats like thunder in my ears
Every sight, every smell, every sound means nothing to me
I walk along the crowded hallway
There is no boy, no girl, no man or woman that I know
I find a door that I wish to enter
But no one here knows my name, my reasons
I sit on a cold wooden stool and think
People look at me and wonder why I am here
But I sit and I wait, for what seems, forever
An hour has passed and I leave this cold room
Out into the hallway with more distant faces
I keep walking but I see no one, feel no one
Where am I now? I wonder to myself
A man speaks to me with a deep, deep voice
He says that I am where I have to be
I am right where I belong and I shouldn't ask why
but I don't understand, none of these faces know me
They don't know who I am or how I came to be
He tells me that it will be alright
There will be those who love me for what I am
And those who hate me for what I am not
But why? I ask, but he says nothing more
Now I am in a large and loud room
My heart is like thunder in my ears again
But after a few seconds, the thunder goes away
The rain dies down and the clouds separate
I am surrounded by happy and loving faces
These faces don't, yet, understand me, but they will
And I know that they love me for who I am
But some also hate me for what I am not
