Too much too soon too little too late

Can't feel no love can't even hate

Caught in limbo in a barren land

People don't know me I'm a Marginal Man

Eyes straight ahead

I got my feet on the ground

Noise all around me I can't hear a sound

Viewing life from a window pane

I'm outside looking in

My luck ran out a short time ago

I've lost myself and there's nowhere to go

So I've curled up in the corner of my room like a rat in its cage

People speak but it makes no sense

They give me strange looks - what's going on?

Allergic to the outside world

Outside looking in

Out of the picture - I can't cry

Out of the picture - Don't know why

Out in the cold, ain't life grand?

Out in the cold...

They want to know just who I am

I tell them I'm a Marginal Man

Now I know who is who

But I still can't talk to you

I'm standing here in despair

I'm all alone and I don't care
