People see me, I'm a challenge to your balance
I'm over your heads,
I confound you and astound you to know
I must be one of the wonders
God's own creation
And as far as I see you can offer me no explanation
I believe fate smiled at destiny
Laughed as she came to my cradle
"Know this child will be able"
Laughed as She came to my mother
"Know this child will not suffer"
Laughed as my body she lifted
"Know this child will be gifted"
With love, with patience and with faith
She'll make her way
- Natalie Merchant, "Wonder"

She's done wondering what it's like to be liked by everyone
And like everyone, be just like anyone
And just wants to be so not like everyone
- Soul Asylum, "Just Like Anyone"

She ran up into the light surprised her
Her arms wide open, her mind's eye
Seeing views from a better side then most can dream of
On a clearer road, I feel
You could say that she's safe
Whatever tears at her
Whatever holds her down
And if nothing can be done
She'll make the best of what's around
- Dave Matthews Band, "The Best Of What's Around"
