"The Leper" lyrics - DINOSAUR JR.

Embarrassed to be alive
Sit with my life, open wide
Your stare is forcing my face open
A leper crumbling, never joking
Who should I believe

Safest to wallow in my own esteem
Afraid, stick my neck out
Knowing the day has drawn

I'm a leper
Scared beyond this feeling
I dare to escape
A leper
Doomed to this, my life is chosen to rape

Embarrassed to be alive
Sit with my life open wide
Your stare is forcing my face open
A leper crumbling never joking

I'm a leper
Scared beyond this feeling
I dare to escape
A leper
Doomed to this, my life is chosen to rape

I'm a leper, leper, leper
