I have sworn
Not to belong
That is not why I was born
From the insides I am torn
From heaps of scorn
Of myself I am shorn
Nothing to mourn
Innocence faded away
Now heart is steel and gray
To long is to belong
That is where I will never go wrong
Staying strong
My feelings in a continuing storm
Whirling winds
Lashing rain
Never goes away the pain
I carry this stain
Of never to belong
Free spirit am I
To myself I say bye
To cry and try
Sworn to scorn
Shorn and torn
A shadow of me
You will see
