People look at me all alone And like to assume that I'm lonely Yet they can't seem to see That I'm not on my own, Because I can talk to the monsters under my bed I can be friends with the voices in my head I can get along with the devil who took my soul And make room for the ghosts who filled the hole I can go play with the creatures in the woods Or talk to the man who gives me my druggy goods, And I can call all the demons by name And we can all get together And be alone with each other Because we all like our solitary the same

Solitary ≠ Alone
People look at me all alone And like to assume that I'm lonely Yet they can't seem to see That I'm not on my own, Because I can talk to the monsters under my bed I can be friends with the voices in my head I can get along with the devil who took my soul And make room for the ghosts who filled the hole I can go play with the creatures in the woods Or talk to the man who gives me my druggy goods, And I can call all the demons by name And we can all get together And be alone with each other Because we all like our solitary the same
I may seem lonely because I'm alone, but know that if I am "alone" then it means that I like it this way.
