I was listening to this song today, it's been a while sense I heard it and it made me cry. It's called "Outside Looking In" by Jordan Pruitt.

It describes my life a lot. The way things are. I try making friends but I just have a feeling it's never going to happen. There aren't any opportunities...ever. And when I listened to this...I just cried. People that are my friends, I'm so grateful to have them but you don't understand. You don't. You say you don't fit in with crowds yet I find out you have a bunch of friends. They are near to you. That you can see every single day. Go places with. Be happy! I'm glad you have a friend you can turn too. To have a shoulder to cry on.

I'm tired of people lying in my face and telling me this stuff. That they don't fit in. The quote doesn't lie when it says a person doesn't realize how much they have until they lose it. Just stop. Love your family, gift that God gave you and your friends. smile

Listen to this song and go along with the lyrics. Enjoy.


You don't know my name
you don't know anything about me
I try to play nice
I want to be in your game
The things that you say
You may think I never hear about them
But word travels fast
I'm telling you to your face
I'm standing here behind your back

[Chorus:]
You don't know how it feels
To be outside the crowd
You don't know what it's like
To be left out
And you don't know how it feels
To be your own best friend on the outside looking in

If you could read my mind
You might see more of me that meets the eye
And you've been all wrong
Not who you think I am
You've never given me a chance

[Chorus:]
You don't know how it feels
To be outside the crowd
You don't know what it's like
To be left out
And you don't know how it feels
To be your own best friend on the outside looking in

Well, I'm tired of staying at home
I'm bored and all alone
I'm sick of wasting all my time

[Chorus (x2):]
You don't know how it feels
To be outside the crowd
You don't know what it's like
To be left out
And you don't know how it feels
To be your own best friend on the outside looking in

You don't know how it feels
To be outside the crowd
You don't know what it's like
To be left out
And you don't know how it feels
To be your own best friend on the outside looking in....
