I know right where to begin
From the outside looking in
I have felt burning from my reflection
Burning on the outside looking in
I stepped up to bat one time
And I nearly lost my life
I guess my favorite things have always been
Just a little bit crooked
Crooked don't fit right, crooked don't fit right
Crooked don't fit right, crooked don't fit right
Crooked don't fit right in
Good heavens, it's lonely in a crowd
When it's crowded and loud
And you're addicted to love
And ever since I picked up my baby from town
Everything I say, she wants to shut down
Just come a little bit closer, crooked you
I can't picture you picking a fight
But I can picture you kicking yourself all night
And if the battle is all in your brain
Then our battle cries are both the same
I got a crooked heart and it's getting stronger
I'm filling out this crooked suit of armor
I know right where to begin
From the outside looking in
I have felt yearning for recognition
Lurking on the outside looking in
When you grow up to ten times your size
You and your headaches grow side by side
And when your favorite things have always been
Just a little bit crooked
Crooked don't fit right, crooked don't fit right
Crooked don't fit right, crooked don't fit right
Crooked don't fit right in
I can't picture you picking a fight
But I can picture you kicking yourself all night
And if the battle is all in your brain
Then our battle cries are both the same
I got a crooked heart and it's getting stronger
I'm filling out this crooked suit of armor
