Eternally the
odd one out, we would invariably feel left out
Alone not seeming to fit in with our peers
Others did not receive us, we felt as outcasts
In our loneliness we turned to other diversions to make us more secure
Using artificial means we found ourselves part of an association
Others like us had chosen the same vices, often for the same reasons
We started to discover that the substance that allowed us to fit in was now having the opposite effect
Our comrades started to avoid us we were back where we started
Only now we had addiction to add to our woes
To deal with the affliction we found a place where we could open up about our problems
Others like us had chosen the same solution, often for the same reasons
We started to discover that what allowed us to fit in, was having a positive effect for instead of medication we found God
