Where We Don’t Belong

This is the way I don’t want to be

Alone and yet unable to be free

Did I come too late for my cup of tea?

There she is staring and angry at me,

Seems it’s always going to be this way

With only sad things to say

Living in a world where you pay

Where they’re false allegations mold like clay,

Makes a humble man pray

But she’ll only stray

Come what may

Despite your dismay,

I’m finding as I go along

Not enough right and too much wrong

No one wants to be strong

We live where we don’t belong,

Didn’t plan this bluesy mood

Wish I were more shrewd

An interdimensional interlude

A nuclear exchange just a tragic feud,

If you examined my history

You might enter an innocent plea

So many burials at sea

Your personal pain is what I see,

Nothing but a foreign land

Where I played on an unknown band

With rain in the palm of my hand

She was so trim and finely tanned.
