Shadow in the Dark

I'm sorry I'm me
I'm sorry I'm not him
I tried so hard
But I never did fit in

I lived in his shadow
All of my life
No one ever cared about
All my pain and strife

It was always about him
Never about me
Because he was always something
That I would never be

He was the perfect athlete
He was the perfect son
I was always the outcast
From the day my life begun

I was never good enough
I could never compare
He was always perfect
Life was so unfair

I dont now how it started
But he was always better
He was Mr. Popular
The big trend setter

I was always alone
Even when people where there
Everytime they looked at me
It was always a blank stare

The pain that they put me through
In my life left a mark
So I'll always remain
A shadow in the dark.......
