Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feeling two-foot small
Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feeling two-foot small
Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
The world in 1950 is a harsh one. In one city, there is a certain outlook, and you're either rich and high-class, with mustangs and madras, or a poor greaser with barely a penny, and has the most amount of drop-outs existing. One family in that general neighborhood struggles to stay together and keep social workers from finding out that they have no parents. Darry Curtis is 18, and taking care of his family best as he can. Sodapop is 16, a jokester, and tends to be in-between when there are fights with his older and younger brothers. Ponyboy is 14, the youngest of their little gang as well, and the smartest. He's one of the few who wants to get an education, while Soda dropped out, and Darry only dreams of college now, having dropped out to care for his family.
The Socials are getting a bit too crazy, too wild, and too dangerous. Most of the time, both groups knew where they could be, and couldn't. They had their boundaries. But the Socials are starting to jump some Greasers more frequently now, and using the switchblade occasionally too. The Socs. think they're the best because they have more money, and it seems that when they do bad things, it tends to get overlooked, but it doesn't when Greasers do bad things. Talk about a messed up life. And then there are those who aren't rich, but aren't poor either, watching this battle of wills, and don't even know what to do, or believe.
Where will you side? As a Social? A Greaser? or a normal Citizen? Pick your side, but choose it wisely, for there's no going back...

How can I even try
I can never win
Hearing them, seeing them
In the state I'm in
I can never win
Hearing them, seeing them
In the state I'm in
