Marginal

Why are your paths so different?
I’m the verse and you’re the reverse
Why are we so opposite?
I’m the verse and you’re the reflection
Of your not knowing anymore
They didn’t tell you at the dock
You’ll never know, ever
Who knows, oh you know
On what day I felt pain

Why do you drive around in a fancy car?
And I just walk around the neighborhood
Where I was born and died
And died and died so many times

You’re the hill and I’m the mound
You’re the hill and I’m the mound
Maybe I’m a rollercoaster, I’m so far away
I’m so far from you

Because you don’t know what I know, nor do you dream
How much bloody mud I’ve swum through
Because you’ve never walked where I’ve been
I fought through the dark alleys
Of fears, secrets, and dark toys
I’m so carnal, that’s right
Don’t be afraid
I’m a marginal
