mocking game {extended}

i used to think everyone felt it

the empty hole in your heart

but now i know it was just me

it felt like being pierced by a dart

i think it was the knowledge of

never fitting in

always on the outside

abandoned by my kin

i felt lost, stumbling in the dark

no hands to guide me

but help i need not

from this hate i shall flee

the cliques and groups are lost

within their own mind

striving for attention

but to us they're blind

its hard to breathe sometimes

suffocating in this endless madness

that is the world of fitting in

all for nothing was my sadness

now the hole has been healed

by others who feel the same

those who fit in are clones

like players in a mocking game

it’s hard to fit in

but it doesn’t mean you need to

this cracked image distorts the world

it’s to yourself you need to be true

you are not lost

you are not alone

you are true

right down to the bone
