lyrics

We left lives behind, to fit into this skeleton.
Lost in your eyes just because we're different.
We left lives behind, never to be accepted.
Lost in your eyes, we will be forever rejected.
We are the difference.
We are the difference.
We are the difference.
It's been hard living a life feeling like you never belong.
I'll change your existence.
I'll change your existence.
Lost in your eyes, thinking you know my mind.
Rejecting my skin, not knowing what's within.
I don't know you, you don't know me.
Maybe you should just get to know me.
We are the difference.
We are the difference.
Is the weight of the world worth the blood in your veins?
Is the fight to belong worth the heart in your chest?
I accept your skeleton.
Everyone has been rejected in this life but we all belong.
There's no reason to reject anyone, we're all in this together.
I accept your skeleton.
We are the change.
We are the change.
So let it be know that we have a cause, we have a purpose.
We are the broken, we were the used, and this is our cause.
This is our cause.
We are the difference.
