| I am an outsider I don't belong here I don't fit in here I am not original, I am an outcast Nothing I do is right Nothing I say is correct The more I try, the harder I fail My skull dented from beating against the wall The taste of failure strong on my lips The vision of doom stinging my eyes The sound of rejection ringing in my ears I am an outsider I am outside myself Looking in at all the empty spaces Remember what used to be there Dreams of happiness Dreams of success A chance for the "good life" I've watched it all turn to dust I can see my sanity slipping away I feel my steps falter, my grip loosen I'm falling into the darkness And soon I will crash I am outside myself I am no longer myself Gone is the boy that always smiled Replaced by the man with the heavy heart The crushed soul, the empty mind Devoid of feelings, lost for emotions Yet, bursting into tears for no reason Love and caring swapped for hatred and loathing Hatred of myself Loathing for those who are happy Why them, why not me I used to be them but I am no longer myself |
