I\'ll use jokes to hide the pain,
to hide the shame.
If I just don\'t listen,
I just won\'t hear.
Sometimes I do it to brighten your day.
sometimes I do it out of fear.
Most people just laugh,
few can see through my act.
I\'ve been neglected, rejected and misunderstood.
I remain tough like I should.
With the same destination my whole life long,
somewhere that I can belong.
I\'m scared to be alone,
on my own.
But it would be weak to alow my feelings to be shown.
So I just wipe the tears form my eyes and try my best to be strong
as I continue to search for a place to belong.
Bitter and ornery toward the people I love.
The closer they get,
the more I push and shove.
Its hard for me to change once my mind has been made,
I guess I shouldn\'t be so afraid.
Sometimes trash talking is just easier for me,
but everything I say isn\'t meant to be taken seriously.
But everything I say is meant to be heard.
If I look you in the eyes,
you should hear every word.
I\'ve been neglected, rejected and misunderstood.
I remain tough like I should.
With the same destination my whole life long,
somewhere that I can belong.
I\'m scared to be alone,
on my own.
But it would be weak to alow my feelings to be shown.
So, I just wipe the tears from my eyes
and try my best to be strong
as I continue to search for a place to belong.
In attempt to feel like Im not the only one,
I\'ll talk to everyone.
Looking for, in them
what i\'ve found in my own.
And I have found others,
so im not all alone.
Others who have been neglected, rejected and misunderstood.
Who remain tough like they should.
With the same destination their whole life long,
somewhere that they can belong.
They\'re scared to be alone,
on their own.
But it would be weak to alow their feelings to be shown.
So they just wipe the tears form their eyes
and try their best to be strong
as they continue to search for a place to belong.
