I Don't Want To Be Like You

It's people like you who see right through me
And never ever really knew me
Don't want to be around when you start to fall

I've got to follow all of my dreams
Got to figure out what this life means
Don't want to be around when you fall

They say that life's an open book
Turn the page and take another look
You can't judge me by my cover
It's not what you see but what you discover

Can't push me down, it'll come around
Everything that you put me through
I don't want to be like you...

I may be different but I'm beautiful
Every diamond individual
Everyone shines in their own way

Kaleidoscopes have many different colours
I'll never be just like all the others
Gotta open your mind, I'll prove you wrong

They say that life's an open book
Turn the page and take another look
You can't judge me by my cover
It's not what you see but what you discover

Can't push me down, it'll come around
Everything that you put me through
I don't want to be like you...

They say the grass in greener on the other side
But from where I'm standing it looks just fine
I'll always be an outcast; I'll never get in line
You keep on living your life and I'll mine

You can't judge me by my cover
You can't judge me by my cover
It's not what you see but what you discover

Can't push me down, it'll come around
Everything that you put me through
I don't want to be like you...

You can't judge me by my cover
It's not what you see but what you discover

Can't push me down, it'll come around
Everything that you put me through
I don't want to be like you...

I don't want to be like you...
I don't want to be like you...
