Be apart. (1986) / TIM BRICKLEY

"When they want you to conform, to exchange your ideals for the norm, to stay in line, or to reform: be apart."

 

BE APART

(Timothy Brickley & David Rheins)

 

When they want you to conform,

to exchange your ideals for the norm,

to stay in line or to reform,

be apart, be apart.

 

Be apart, in everything that you do.

Be apart, any manner that you choose.

Be apart, doesn’t matter win or lose.

 

    Life is not a game.

    Winners and losers are the same

    as long as you remain true to the ways of your heart.                             

    Be apart.

      

Be apart, from those Xeroxed heroes around you. 

Be apart, from the pettiness that surrounds you.

Be apart, never join, never compromise.

Be apart, never give in to those plastic guys.

 

    The limit is your inner skies,

    the dreams you have can all be realized

    as long as you

Be apart. Be a part.
