I would rather be lonely
Here than lonely
There; rather here
Where I know
No one and no one
Knows me,
Than at home
Where they see me
Come and go but
Don't even see.
Better to be ignored
By strangers you
May never see again
Rather than
The people you face
Every night
Whether or not you
Eat dinner at
The table with them.

I would rather be lonely
Here than lonely
There; rather here
Where I know
No one and no one
Knows me,
Than at home
Where they see me
Come and go but
Don't even see.
Better to be ignored
By strangers you
May never see again
Rather than
The people you face
Every night
Whether or not you
Eat dinner at
The table with them.
