Outcast.
Hanging your head in shame,
You’ve been excluded once again.
Tears in your eyes, head full of hate,
By yourself is where you find your escape.
Like a beast within a cage,
Your rage consumes you.

You are the pariah.
Stand up for yourself,
Be proud of who you are.
Your drive, your determination,
Will never falter.

A lonely shell of a person.
You wallow in your own pity.
People are cruel, people judge.
A mirror hangs upon the wall,
Dust covered and faded, shows the person
You once were.

Pick yourself up again,
Pick yourself up again.

My original intent was to make this more of a song, I'm just going to post this poetic version of it instead.
