Damned If I Do

(album: Ugly - 1995)

Why do I feel so alone in a crowd of people I know?
Is it wrong to feel so insecure and so unappealing?
Why walk around in disguise with a fake grin on my face?
What would it prove?
What would I gain?
I'd still feel so out of place

Damned if I do
Damned if I don't
But I won't turn out like you
Damned if I do
Damned if I don't
But I won't turn out like you

Midlife crisis at the age of 22, who knew?
I need some answers cross the street
And down the avenue I stopped
For the woman and paid five bucks
Got my palm read and she said
"You shouldn't be smiling boy
This life line says you're already dead"

Just keep on moving forward never turning back
But with every step ahead I take they pull me two steps back
They pull me two steps back

Damned if I do
Damned if I don't
But I won't turn out like you
Damned if I do
Damned if I don't
But I won't turn out like you
