We Are the Others
Delain Lyrics

I'm walking with Sophie tonight,
I am going out with my friend Sophie tonight.

She lives in the air that I breathe;
Sophie is a very important person to me.

I can't get it out of my mind
I can't stop thinking about how unfair society can be.

How you were left to bleed
How people treat those who are different.

Was it how you dressed?
Did how you dress make people hate you?

Or how you act?
Did how you act make people hate you?

I can't believe
It's hard to comprehend how people can act so violently.

How they could act so violently,
How some people can be hateful towards others.

Without regret,
Without feeling guilty.

Well, we will not forget
We will always remember the injustice and the victims.

We are the others,
We are those who feel different and treated unfairly.

We are the cast outs,
We are the ones who society chooses to exclude.

We're the outsiders
We are not part of the mainstream or popular culture.

But you can't hide us,
We can't be ignored or made invisible.

You're not out there on your own
You are not alone in feeling excluded or mistreated.

If you feel mistreated,
If you feel like people have treated you unfairly or badly.

Torn and cheated,
Feeling like you have been wronged or betrayed in some way.

We are the others (we are the others)
We are the people who have experienced these things and we stand with you.

As simple as air in your lungs
Feeling like you belong and are accepted should be as natural as breathing.

As simple as words on your lips
Being able to speak your mind and be heard should be as easy as speaking a few words.

And no one should take that away
No one should have the power to make us feel like we don't have the right to be ourselves.

No one should argue this
No one should debate or question our right to be treated fairly.

Now with our heads up high
We should stand tall and be proud of who we are.

We'll carry on,
We won't let society beat us down or make us give up.

And carry out,
We will continue to fight for our right to be treated equally and with respect.

And we won't let them get us down,
We won't let society's negativity or hate stop us from being ourselves.

Wear us out,
We won't let all the negative things people say or do wear us down.

'Cause we are not alone
We are part of a community of people who have felt excluded or mistreated.

Normal is not the norm,
Being 'normal' is not the only way to be accepted in society.

It's just a uniform
Following the crowd and trying to be like everyone else is like wearing a uniform.

Forget about the norm,
Don't worry about being like everyone else.

(We're the outsiders)
We are not part of the mainstream or popular culture.

Take off your uniform,
Be yourself and don't worry about fitting in with everyone else.

(We are the others)
We are the people who have experienced exclusion and mistreatment.

We are all beautiful,
Everyone has the right to feel beautiful and accepted for who they are.

We are the others
We are the people who have experienced exclusion and mistreatment.

We are the cast outs,
We are the people who society chooses to exclude.

We're the outsiders
We are not part of the mainstream or popular culture.

But you can't hide us,
We can't be ignored or made invisible.

You're not out there on your own
You are not alone in feeling excluded and mistreated.

If you feel mistreated,
If you feel like people have treated you unfairly or badly.

Torn and cheated,
Feeling like you have been wronged or betrayed in some way.

You're not alone,
We stand with you and support you.

We are the others (we are the others)
We are the people who have experienced these things and we stand with you.
