I lay my view on this world
when I don’t speak I see it more clearly
why talk? they won’t understand
they keep working on me 
but I don’t march by command
I always knew as I always will
this place holds no warm embraces
so why come out and try to fit in?
I know there is simply now way
I will be ever one of them
never one of them 
I made my retreat into safety and quiet
locked in my own private skin
stepping away from the rattle and hum
in here I don’t have to fit in
I don’t have to fit in
I can’t raise my hand
but I am never fit in
I raise my hand 
there is no going back to where I have come from
and here I am the perfect misfit
I watch them, I listen, I thought I could learn
but I am never be one of them
you can label me crazy and label me dumb
my lover thought sorrow could drown
instead the bottle ended up drinking him
slowly under the ground
until he was robbed of everything 
I can still raise my hand
but I am  never fit in
I raise my hand
but l am never fit in
never fit in
well I don’t have to fit in
but I raise my hand
