Black Sheep among Black Sheep

Among black sheep, I'm darker Among outcasts, I sit alone In this world I'll never truly fit Like a square peg into a round hole Among cats, I am the blackest Among birds, I am a raven The only emotions I receive are pity Or the ones who wish to scar me even further Among numbers, I am thirteen Among pennies, face down Where I go, things go wrong All that comes to me is sorrow My place is forgotten My place is pitied My place is valueless My place is the black sheep among black sheep
