Lyrics

I keep looking for a place to fit

I am searching for a place where I belong

Where I can speak my mind

A space where I can express my thoughts freely

I've been trying hard to find the people

I have been striving to connect with people


That I won't leave behind

Seeking companionship that I won't abandon


They say I got brains

Others acknowledge my intelligence

But they ain't doing me no good

Intellect alone isn't benefiting me

I wish they could

Desire for the recognition to be helpful


Each time things start to happen again

Whenever positive things begin, I feel optimistic

I think I got something good goin' for myself

Believing in having something good in my life

But what goes wrong

Yet, obstacles arise


Sometimes I feel very sad

Experiencing deep sadness at times

Sometimes I feel very sad (Can't find

Reiteration of feeling profoundly sad

nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)

Unable to find something meaningful to invest in emotionally

Sometimes I feel very sad (Can't find

Repetition of the struggle to find purpose

nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)

Reiterating the difficulty in finding meaning


I guess I just wasn't made for these times

Expressing a sense of not fitting into the current times

Every time I get the inspiration

Feeling inspired but facing a lack of support

To go change things around

Desire to bring about change in circumstances

No one wants to help me look for places

Struggling to find assistance in exploring new possibilities

Where new things might be found

Seeking places where novel experiences might unfold


Where can I turn

Questioning where to go when unreliable friends abandon

When my fair weather friends cop out

Reflecting on fair-weather friends leaving

What's it all about

Pondering the meaning of life


Each time things start to happen again

Similar cycle of optimism and disappointment repeats

I think I got something good goin' for myself

Belief in having positive aspects in life

But what goes wrong

Yet, facing unexpected setbacks


Sometimes I feel very sad

Experiencing intense sadness intermittently

Sometimes I feel very sad (Can't find

Reiteration of profound sadness

nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)

Struggling to find a meaningful focus for heart and soul

Sometimes I feel very sad (Can't find

Repeating the challenge of finding purpose

nothin' I can put my heart and soul into)

Reiterating the difficulty in finding meaning


I guess I just wasn't made for these times

Feeling incompatible with the current era
