Outcast

April 26, 2013
By Anonymous

everyday I make a new pain
that nobody knows
nobody sees
I hide it better
behind the letter
I don’t let them see
the pain I have
if I did, they would laugh

I’m an outcast left to die
I don’t know whose life this is
but it aint mine
so why am I trapped
only pain I find
I feel my soul
crushed and dead
I wish pain
would be replaced with lead
I said
why, why am I gone
gone in the past like this song

I am gone gone like the wind
gone like my life will never begin
I’m gone farther than the eye can see
I’m gone, I’m gone, so forget me

time will erase my life
and then I can put down the strife
I’m an outcast
never gonna make it, never gonna last.
