Not long after you are stuck with aloneness,
You are struck with complete loneliness.
The loneliness that makes you cry out in the night
Waking up in complete fright
It is not the darkness,
It is not even what’s in the night
It is what is not there
What is not starring or lusting
I do not feel right,
Like I am slowly busting through the seams
My lips are sealed shut, but all I wish to do is scream
I wish she still invaded my dreams
I wish I could still persuade myself that I am okay
That I am not so faded and jaded
I wish I could just be completely isolated
From this life where I am just trying to be motivated
I am finding out how not to be dominated
By this tragic society
I am shut off
Cut off
To rebut, becomes an everyday affair
Loneliness may be unfair
But truly in its’ full extent,
this life is just pure despair

Not long after you are stuck with aloneness,
You are struck with complete loneliness.
The loneliness that makes you cry out in the night
Waking up in complete fright
It is not the darkness,
It is not even what’s in the night
It is what is not there
What is not starring or lusting
I do not feel right,
Like I am slowly busting through the seams
My lips are sealed shut, but all I wish to do is scream
I wish she still invaded my dreams
I wish I could still persuade myself that I am okay
That I am not so faded and jaded
I wish I could just be completely isolated
From this life where I am just trying to be motivated
I am finding out how not to be dominated
By this tragic society
I am shut off
Cut off
To rebut, becomes an everyday affair
Loneliness may be unfair
But truly in its’ full extent,
this life is just pure despair
