Is there something wrong with me
I'm not like everybody else
I hide in my shell
And when I choose to come out
Fear pushes me back
Fear that I'll never be the same
That I'll mess up and lose my way
That no one will accept me for who I am
I have too much to lose
I've come this far
I can't risk my future
But it hurts to be the awkward duck
To be left alone
When everyone has a life
When  everyone has a way
And I have to struggle to find mine
But I'm not complaining
I'm just sad.
