Do you know what it feels like to be all alone? To be in a room where everyone is talking But no one is listening They just stare at their phone You could be yelling, or whispering Or saying nothing at all In return you receive a blank stare, An empty smile, that makes you feel small So you sit all alone Not knowing what to do You think "if they cared, they'd help. Right?" But you're not them, and they're not you Whatever decision you make You know will be wrong You think you're moving forward But you've been moving back all along You're surrounded by people but still feel alone In your bed, in your car, in your room It's where your most comfortable Being alone is your home Being alone by yourself You have no one else to blame You're no one's burden And you're no one's shame It's not your imagination What you're feeling is real It's just not made up It's really how I feel He's just being lazy he's not sick There's nothing wrong He looks too well Just walk a mile in my shoes And you'll walk alone thru my Hell

Do you know what it feels like to be all alone? To be in a room where everyone is talking But no one is listening They just stare at their phone You could be yelling, or whispering Or saying nothing at all In return you receive a blank stare, An empty smile, that makes you feel small So you sit all alone Not knowing what to do You think "if they cared, they'd help. Right?" But you're not them, and they're not you Whatever decision you make You know will be wrong You think you're moving forward But you've been moving back all along You're surrounded by people but still feel alone In your bed, in your car, in your room It's where your most comfortable Being alone is your home Being alone by yourself You have no one else to blame You're no one's burden And you're no one's shame It's not your imagination What you're feeling is real It's just not made up It's really how I feel He's just being lazy he's not sick There's nothing wrong He looks too well Just walk a mile in my shoes And you'll walk alone thru my Hell
