It's true
I came in
New and bright eyed
Optimism swarmed me
I wasn't alone then

Everything
Was an experience
An adventure
With the people I thought I’d hold close
I wasn't alone then

They all
Described the ups and downs
Of this life
But for me there was only up
I wasn't alone then

But suddenly
The people that
Once seemed so close
Became farther than ever
I seemed alone then

And then I met them
They took me
And they crush the optimism
And dimmed my bright eyes
I was alone then

They punched
I got up and punched back
So they kicked
I got up and kicked back
They wanted victory
I was alone then

I wouldn’t
Give up
Give in
Fighting,
When no one else would
When no one else wanted to
I was alone then

Still
Somehow victory was found
And new people
Closer than the last
We're my new life

I wouldn't be alone again
