I am just trying to find my place in this world.
I wonder when I'll stop feeling so swirled?
I hear voices telling me I'm doing just fine, but
I see others who have what I want for mine.
I want, one day, children that I can hold.
I am just trying to find my place in this world.

I pretend that everything's going okay, but
I feel as if I've been led astray.
I touch the hearts of all that I meet.
I worry that I'll never feel totally complete.
I cry when my life goes into a whirl.
I am just trying to find my place in this world.

I understand that these thoughts won't last forever,
I say that one day I'll get it all together.
I dream of the day I'm finally there, and
I try my best now in all ways I can bear.
I hope one day soon I can proudly say,
I am NOW in my place in this world!
