Outside Looking In

Here I am more or less a man

Second rate the last in line

One of life's little twists of fate

But here I stand

The unaccepted man

Neh 19

At the temple gate

Sometimes I sit and wonder why

I was born

When everything that I touch

Seems to turn out wrong

Though I'm a mistake

There must be a place I belong

But I'm outside looking in

Luke 1514

Life looks so easy they all seem so happy

Yes I'm outside looking in

And everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly

I'm all alone without a friend

'Cause I'm outside looking in

The plan was laid

I guess I was made this way

Psa 515

I've tried before

But I just can't seem to change

Still my heart longs to belong

I wish there was a way

But I'm outside looking in

The beautiful city they all seem so happy

Eph 221

Yes I'm outside looking in

And everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly

The celebration will begin

While I'm still outside looking in

Oh I'm outside looking in

Gal 426

They make it look easy to love and be happy

Yes I'm outside looking in

I'm cast out and ugly and nobody loves me

Oh nobody knows me now I'm outside looking in

The beautiful city they all seem so happy

Num 245

Oh nobody sees the ones outside looking in

And everyone's pretty but I feel so ugly

Oh nobody knows me now

As life goes on for them

I will stay here in my sin

'Cause I'm outside looking in
