LYRICS

It's hard to explain

Inherently it's just always been strange

Neither here nor there --

always somewhat out of place everywhere

Ambiguous --

without a sense of belonging to touch

Somewhere halfway --

feeling there's no one completely the same

Chorus:

Standing alone --

eager to just

believe it's good enough to be what

you really are

But in your heart

uncertainty forever lies

and you'll always be

somewhere on the

outside

Early on, you face

the realization you don't

have a space

where you fit in

And recognize

you were born to exist

Chorus (1x)

And it's hard

And it's hard

And it's hard

Irreversibility

Falling in between

And it's hard

And it's hard

to be understood

as you are

As you are

Oh, and God knows

that you're standing on your own --

blind and unguided

Into a world divided

you're thrown

Where you're never quite the same

although you try -- try and try

to tell yourself

you really are

But in your heart -- uncertainty forever lies

and you'll always be

somewhere on the outside

You'll always be

somewhere on the outside

This is the way I have felt my whole life. I am gay and no one knows because I hide and I never fit in anywhere even in my own family

Since 1998 I have used this song for when I have emotions built up inside and I need to release them (usually by crying, lol)... I listen to the song and it just puts me in a vulnerable place. I release all that negative energy and then move on. Mariah has been my favorite since Music Box when I was in the first grade. By far my favorite artist of all time!!!...I mean the girl can just do no wrong in my eyes lol

This song is about her being half black and half white and not fitting in anywhere. She always felt like an outsider growing up.

Some of you people do not have ear or truly understand MIMI's work and voice. This song is clear that how she sings 2014 she has been doing for years since her 1st album. Mariah, will use her voice (and not you want her to be) whatever why she likes it.

XVI Hello

This song is so universal, shows how great of a song writer Mariah is, anyone could relate to this song. Amazing vocal, love how she emphasizes the word "Exist" at 2:05 . This song could also be a really sad diss song lol to someone. The lyrics are are hardly uplifting. It's the painful reminder that you will never fit it in completely. Such a Magical song >.>

Her gift to me in voice and song is like scrapping the sides of the plate digesting the blissfulness of SOUL FOOD~ This diva I love all parts of her, her voice is a charm in the soundtrack of my life. I was a caterpillar when I first heard her but over the years My wings SPREAD HIGH and glide into the bold rays of the Sun. I am a true lamb honey! *giggling joy*

She wore this song out (on record). I know she'll never be able to do this live. I remember when I first bought this album, this was the song I'd go back to. I like how she said ALTHOUGH YOU TRY at 3:32 to 3:35. That's my part.
