You say that you follow "Be Who You Are, etc.". But isn't wearing that uniform (because when you take the time to consider it, it is a uniform) not really being who you are? You're adapting to what someone else drew out as the guidelines to being what a punk looks like. Fashion has always come with the start of a "rebellion", pretty much dragging down what was started into just another trend. You say you've never fit in. But you hang out (i'm assuming, bear with me, forgive me if I am wrong) with people that look like you, talk like you, have similar if not the same beliefs and ideals. Isn't it safe to say that you fit in with them? What is it exactly you're rebelling against, the "Man", the government...or pastel low cut jeans? The "poseurs", the trendsetters, the people that don't seem to think for themselves because they listen to only what MTV tells them to and buy into what the media sells them on. The truth is, none of that is any different than what you've bought into. And when you think about it, it's not any different from joining any type of following. You exchange what you consider "normal" clothes for ripped up/patched up/studded outfits, you buy the music, you go to the shows, you hang out with other people that have bought into it and soon you start preaching the ideals of the lyricist. But it's not really you, is it? Because when you come home and wash the excess black liner off your face and change into something that didn't take you an hour to lace up, do you think that is you, or are you the person you take all morning transforming into?
