This has been a super stressed out week for me at work so that tends to ruin everything... I'm sorry I haven't had time to listen to everyone else's tracks and comment. For this second version I ditched the old verses and melodies and started again from scratch. I think the song flows better. I kept the chorus and the chord structure.
lyrics
I don’t know how people do it
Though I keep trying to fit in
Conversations seem to go in strange directions
And I find myself alone in space again
I’m an outsider inside this life
I’m an outsider inside this life
Striving to be me
People tell me not to worry
Just do my thing and move along
When I get caught up in the hurry and the hustle
Then it feels like there’s no place where I belong
I’m an outsider inside this life
Striving to be me
I’m an outsider inside this life
BRIDGE
I’m an outsider inside this life
Striving to be me
I’m an outsider inside this life
It’s who I’d rather be
