Black Sheep

 

Hiding in the background

Ostracized by society

The dirt we found

making someone else have anxiety

You may not know it, people are see-through

The things you learn when you have a front-row view

Karma comes time to pay what you owe

Quickly now before secrets blow

Walking on pins and needles

While outsiders walk free

We can see you

We start to wheedle
Baby bird just flew

They will learn the lesson

And consider it a blessing

Nothing like a good old confession

To free you from transgression

Still, the outsider looking in

and patience is wearing thin

This is a game no one will win

Yet we’ll keep the grin

Secrets I can keep

Until it needs to be spoken

Things will get broken

Because of us black sheep
