I try to fit in, I try to believe, That maybe someday, They’ll like me better, Than I like me. It’s a constant battle, A fight I can’t resist, To put myself down before others, Oh why do I persist? I’ve been bullied, I’ve been shunned, This I can’t forget. It hurts deep down inside, So it is myself that I subject. Why is it that, When I want to make friends, All these memories, Come flooding back to me again? I thought after all these years, After all this time, I had found, That bright burning light. I guess it isn’t so, But maybe it is, Confusion engulfs me, Just as sadness did.

Battles
I try to fit in, I try to believe, That maybe someday, They’ll like me better, Than I like me. It’s a constant battle, A fight I can’t resist, To put myself down before others, Oh why do I persist? I’ve been bullied, I’ve been shunned, This I can’t forget. It hurts deep down inside, So it is myself that I subject. Why is it that, When I want to make friends, All these memories, Come flooding back to me again? I thought after all these years, After all this time, I had found, That bright burning light. I guess it isn’t so, But maybe it is, Confusion engulfs me, Just as sadness did.
