If anyone ever made you feel like you're important
Know that you're not
That can change in an instant
One conversation, one person, one decision
All amounts to nothing

All was well
That perfect moment in time
Just to collapse right in front of you
You think that the pleasure was all mine
Just to have you in my life
But at night, you're still by yourself

Alone in your head
Alone in a room full of people
You never could have been more misled
To think that you were important
To think that you were actually worth something
But instead, you continue to put yourself through more torment

If anyone ever made you feel like you're important
Know that you're not
The change in life is always constant
No one can promise you what's nonexistent
It's an overplayed romanticized concept

So remember, if anyone ever makes you feel like you're important
Just know that you're not
The life we live isn't guaranteed
We live alone, we die alone
And alone in life, we will proceed.
