Left to waste away
To dissolve in my mental decay
Mankind threw me out, demanding perfection
And anything found short would receive rejection
But now that I’m higher than anyone can reach
My love and friendship they beseech
If I wasn’t good enough before
Then please get to stepping out that door
My success shouldn’t decide our relation
I’m not dealing with this love hate rotation
If you didn’t like me before you knew of my fame
Then to me you’re a meaningless face without a name
Rejecting someone till their known then become their friend
You can’t do that, you must like someone from beginning to end
Whether their famous or not, or even if you don’t know
Everyone has their own secrets that they don’t show
A man you think to be homeless could be a millionaire
An ugly girl you ignore could be the next Cher
Fact is you never know from the start
So give each person an open place in your heart
p.s. wow this guild has died out
