I'm just your average idiot
Let me make that clear
I am nothing special;
A failure, but sincere
Clever are my thoughts
But I never follow through
In a lie detector test
I answered every question "true".
I smile through the pain
Feeling a sense of shame
Maybe I'm insane
Not right in the brain
Or am I just a nitwit
A simpleton at best
Gathering my twigs
To someday build a nest
Screaming out "I'm normal!"
But still not like the rest
Never fitting in
No matter who I'm with
You would understand the truth
From one day in my shoes
No need to feel pity
After all, I've got nothing to lose

A failure, but sincere
Clever are my thoughts
But I never follow through
In a lie detector test

I smile through the pain
Feeling a sense of shame
Maybe I'm insane
Not right in the brain
Or am I just a nitwit
A simpleton at best
Gathering my twigs
To someday build a nest
Screaming out "I'm normal!"
But still not like the rest
Never fitting in
No matter who I'm with
You would understand the truth
From one day in my shoes
No need to feel pity
After all, I've got nothing to lose
Feeling down and my writing reflects it
