How can I feel that I belong?
When all I do I feel is wrong
Or that is what I’m told
And though I try and do what’s right
That goal for me is out of sight
I fail, I’m wrong, I’m old
Now though we try to do what’s good
Because we’re told and know we should
We still go on to fail
Though some can cope and try again
I know I can’t and won’t, but then
There’s some that may prevail
I should not mix with those who aren’t
I know I should, but yet I can’t,
Mix with those who are
I’ve been along and tried to sit
With others yet I do not fit
I feel there is a bar
There’s some I hold in high renown
But they’re the ones who put me down
But still I have to try
Their standards are so very high
And if I fail they won’t say why
Only turn and say goodbye
