Not as Goth as They Say We Are

Embracing Shadows: A Musical Ode to Individuality

Lyrics

We climb out of bed like the rest of you,

We start our day like everyone else.

Post afternoon, and we don black suits.

In the afternoon, we wear black suits.

But all of us aren't quite as goth as they say we are,

Contrary to popular belief, we are not as goth as people claim; we just enjoy fast cars.

We just like fast cars.

Our preference for fast cars does not define us as extremely gothic.


And we can dance like the best of them,

We are adept at dancing, especially in low light conditions.

As long as the lights stay low

Our dance skills shine when the lights are dim, and the DJ understands the music.

And the jockey knows what she's doing.

Reiteration of our dance prowess in specific conditions.

And we can dance like the best of them,

We can dance well in low light with a skilled DJ.

As long as the lights stay low

Reiteration of our dancing abilities under specific lighting and DJ conditions.

And the jockey knows what she's doing.


Don't think aloud,

Advocacy for keeping thoughts to oneself.

So what if our teeth protrude more than yours do

We embrace our unique features, like protruding teeth, without concern.

And we perch on stoops.

We casually sit on doorsteps or elevated platforms.

And all of us aren't quite as mean

We are not as unkind as certain dramatic individuals and those prone to static cling.

As the drama queens and the static cling.


And we can dance like the best of them,

Reiteration of our dancing ability under specific conditions.

As long as the lights stay low

And the jockey knows what she's doing.

-

And we can dance like the best of them,

Reiteration of our proficiency in dancing under specific lighting and DJ conditions.

As long as the lights stay low

And the jockey knows what she's doing.
