lyrics

Are you looking at me? Tell me now what do you see.
I can't help it that my skin is brown.
I'm not one of them, but I'm still around.

By the look in their eyes, I can feel how they despise
That mix of light and darkness in my soul
I'm not one of them, I just don't belong.

I don't belong round here, I don't belong over there
I don't belong not anywhere.
I can't go back to where I'm from I just don't belong.

Is the glass half empty or is the glass half full.
Am I half a man or maybe half a fool?
I'm always half way wrong I guess I don't belong.

I'm the black sheep of the flock, between a hard place and a rock.
No matter who I'm with I just don't fit in.
I was never a bundle of joy, I was the wage of sin.

I don't belong round here, I don't belong over there
I don't belong not anywhere.
I can't go back to where I'm from I just don't belong.
