Unsure Of Where I Fit In

How did I ever get here
All the terror and the tears
Kept me down and all alone
I felt like a statue of stone
No emotional attachments
So afraid of taking chances
with a heart useless and torn
Not knowing where I belong
Like an outcast pushed aside
Every day I really tried
To fit in and feel proud
To be part of any crowd
But all my virtues couldn't find
A piece of world where I could bind
No one wanted to be seen
With a girl wholesome and clean
Who couldn't do any wrong
But I just stood proud and strong
Giving in would ruin the
Woman I turned out to be
One at a time I'm finding friends
Who wont make me twist and bend
They like me for who I am
Acting like my second fam'
