Amanda Woods Poet Lyric

The Outsider

No matter how hard I try 
I'm still left on the outside 
All alone once again 
Can never fully understand 
Trying to hold my composer 
I'm losing my grip 
Doesn't matter that I've always been there 
I'm not on that level 
So my opinion's tossed aside 
Everything's a big secret 
SHH, she won't understand 
Don't even bother 
She doesn't belong here 
Can't handle our world 
How do you know!? 
You never give me a chance! 
You only assume... 
Do you know how I hurt? 
Do you know how I long to understand? 
No! All you know is I don't 
Hear what you hear... 
Feel what you feel... 
Whatever, it's okay 
Go ahead and think that way 
You'll need me again someday
