Square Peg - Beverley Knight

I know what they think of me

I just don’t care

No one tells me to my face

They’d never dare

When you come from somewhere else

Everything feels strange

So much pressure to conform

But I don’t wanna change…

Like a square peg in a round hole

I never fit in;

But I won’t beg, or sell my soul

I’m stronger within

There were time s when I would try

To play along

Folks would laugh at me, but never say why

I’d got it wrong

You can stand up in a crowd with ten thousand people

And still be on your own

So if faking friends means that I’ll be your equal

I’d rather be, rather be alone…

Like a square peg in a round hole

I never fit in;

But I won’t beg, or sell my soul

I’m stronger within

(And if you ever feel like I feel

You would understand)

Although some days it hurts you inside

Just hold on to your pride…

Like a square peg in a round hole

I never fit in;

But I won’t beg, or sell my soul

I’m stronger within

Like a square peg in a round hole

No, don’t ever fit in

So you don’t beg, or sell your soul

Oh, you’re stronger within
