Wonder
Navigating Self-Identity: Struggles of Belonging and Acceptance
Lyrics
What do you do when
Questioning actions when feeling out of place
You don't belong?
Sense of not fitting in or being part of a group
You're in your corner.
Being isolated or withdrawn
What do you say when
Expression when frequently being incorrect
You're always wrong?
Continual feeling of being mistaken
Is it any wonder?
Questioning the surprise or reason behind a situation
Day and night it's night
Emphasizing a cyclical pattern of time
And day, current behavior.
Behavioral consistency regardless of time
What you see it's not
Recognition that what's observed isn't aligned with personal preference
Your way, is it any wonder
Reiteration of surprise or disbelief in the situation
Now, who could
Rhetorical query about who could empathize or comprehend
Understand you?
Suggesting lack of understanding from others
Putting your record
Placing a musical record, metaphorically symbolizing expression or history
On, shut the back door
Symbolic act of shutting oneself off from others
It's just where you
Feeling of fitting into the seclusion or isolation
Belong.
Sense of belonging in isolation or unconventional places
It's your own fantasy,
Indulgence in personal imagination or desires, self-centric
All for you and none for me.
Unequal distribution of attention or benefits
Day and night it's night
Reiteration of the cyclical nature of time
And day, current behavior.
Consistency in actions regardless of the time
What you see it's not
Observing something not aligning with personal perspective
Your way, is it any wonder?
Repeating the surprise or disbelief
Now, who could under
Rhetorical query about understanding from others
Stand you?
Perception of lack of understanding from others
Putting your record
Symbolically referencing personal expression or history
On, shut the back door,
Symbolic act of isolation or shutting oneself off
It's just where you
Feeling of fitting into the seclusion or isolation
Belong.
Sense of belonging in isolation or unconventional places
Mom and dad, please,
Pleading with parents but facing rejection
You can never renter,
Feeling of being permanently excluded or denied entry
Shut the back door,
Symbolic act of isolating oneself
It's just where you belong.
Sense of belonging in the state of isolation or exclusion
