Waking Up Shining

Lately I've felt out of place
It's not that I fell out of grace
It's something that's inside
Something I can't hide
Making me feel out of place
Waking up shining
Knowing that I don't belong
It's something that I cannot say
That's keeping all the world away
Every time I try
To say what's on my mind
It's something that I cannot say
Waking up shining
Knowing that I don't belong
Waking up shining
Knowing that I don't belong
Couldn't rely on all we've come to know
We couldn't survive on land and sea alone
Couldn't rely on all we've come to know
Lately I can hesitate
I'm the one to make me wait
I've waited on the side
With all I had to hide
Now my feet are on the plate
Waking up shining
Knowing that I don't belong
So maybe this is just my fate
Something to appreciate
All the years I've tried
To take it in my stride
Maybe I'm just out of place
Waking up shining
Knowing that I don't belong
Waking up shining
Knowing that I don't belong
Couldn't rely on all we've come to know
We couldn't survive on land and sea alone
Couldn't rely on all we've come to know
Waking up shining
Knowing that I don't belong
