An age-old adage of being true to oneself despite our age of vanity and materialism, a task which is made even more difficult by consumerism.
lyrics
Individuality
Originality!
It's all gone; there is no more
Individuality!
Do you really know the score?
Because everyone sounds the same
In this game that we call fame
We need a new look
We need a new style
We need to stop being like everyone else
And try something different again
A cool melody, new harmony
So you can't tell me that we sound just like everybody else
Start thinking for yourself
Originality!
It's so hard to gain today
You've gotta fight hard
Rebel!
To gain your way
Because the world's a herd of sheep
Following the line
We have to break loose, we have to choose
To live our life like no one else
And try something different again
Take a look around my friend and tell me what you see
Confusion searching ecstasy leaves gaping holes of scrutiny
Falling for propaganda leads to temporary reverie
Yes, choosing the wrong priority thanks to your favorite company
Bring in the cavalry, ideas and not conformity
So find your personality, your individuality
