Autism Spectrum Disorder Blues

How to cope, how to anticipate
Learn from observation, imitate
Remember to make eye contact when you try to blend in, not isolate

People come and go while I'm around
Sometimes unnoticed, unintentionally bound
Nothing new under the sun, I keep ignoring everyone
Immune to speechless frowns

As I move on, learning everything the hard way
So I never realized I could be strong and go the way I wanna go

As I move on, learning everything the hard way
So I never realized I could be strong and go the way I wanna go

From waking up until I'm going to sleep
I'm mostly trying to figure out the everyday upkeep
Don't take it personally if I don't talk to you, I'm me
And I'm in my world too deep

Excuse me while I try to lighten up this fucking life
Without leaving me behind
I am not one of your kind
