[Verse 1]
Dinner table talk I stay quiet
Pass the salt like I am a ghost
They all brag about their straight lines
I draw stars on the edge of the toast
Same last name on the mailbox
Still I feel like a stray on the lawn
[Chorus]
I am the black sheep heart
Wrong shade in the family art
You try to wash me clean
Still I glow in the dark
I am the black sheep heart
Standing out is my favorite scar
You can cut me from the frame
But I still own my part
[Verse 2]
Mom says why you dress like thunder
Dad says boy you are wasting your time
Sister counts her medals on the fridge door
I count beats in the hum of the lights
Their hallway full of framed gold faces
My space just a nail with no frame
[Outro]
So I pack my sins and my sneakers
Walk out slow while the porch light hums
If I am the wrong note in their choir
I will be the whole drum when my song comes
