Shunned

On the outskirts looking in So much emptiness I've seen Cast aside and left behind I have nothing left to hide Looking for a special niche Acceptance being my only wish Being shunned stabs me from within Isolation is my only friend Always thrown towards the curb Feel despondent and perturbed I have never felt included My desires are deluded On the outside looking in Have to find joy from within 'Cause outside there's no connection I rely on my own reflection On the outskirts looking in Storm and stress and pain I've seen I'll find comfort somewhere else Will have to depend upon myself
