A Toast to the Cookie Cutters

Lift your glasses
All up high
To the miracle of conformation
To the wonder of similarity

We celebrate and dance and sing
To a society that all looks the same
We "break it out" or "make it out"
Out of a box that made us who we were
Do not change to this
Do not conform

We're all the same, all part of the body
But should we not be different?
And should we not care for others 
The way we care for ourselves?
Why treat favourably?
Is that not reserved for what lies ahead?
Why leave us all out?
We all are a people
The days of community are coming

We were fearfully and wonderfully made
By a God that lives on
We are who we are
This is who I am
You become your own decision
Yet towards the scene we run
Into the crowd we jump
Live as who you are
Don't trade yourself to the world
We are better than this

Set a new goal
A brand new asset
A toast to the Anti-societies
We are the rebels
We are the stand outs
We won't stand as the "as everyone has been"
Cups into the air
And let the water flood your lips

A toast to the Anti-selves
