I try to go out to feel wanted
I try to stay close to friends to feel comforted
but nothing is clearly working
when I'm in a filled room or not
I still feel alone and the feeling never stops

I put on a smile,
I do my make-up
but when will my friends ever wake up
to the reality of my insecurity
to the pain I'm trying to scream but no one seems to hear me

its hard trying to put my feelings out there
its hard trying to express when I know they wont care
at the end of the day you have nothing to say
so why tell you in the first place

this empty lonely feeling feels like it can never be filled
no matter where I go, what I do
this feeling wont subdue

its hard to tame these emotions
when I don't have an escape button
its hard to say how I feel
when I don't know what you're really thinking
I'm afraid of it all, afraid of this world

so you could say I like being alone sometimes
but it has grown too attached to me, it has taken over my body
I never should've let the loneliness in
but it was the only thing there when I needed it
