"Ironically Lonely" *

Folder: 
Sad

With all the guys I know,

You'd think I'd have some hope.

With all the "friends" I've made,

You'd think this pain would fade.

Although I try to blow below this pain that I must undergo,

I try to shake away the sleep as I awake, it's just a fake, a big mistake, and now I break, but I can't make it, I just can't take it anymore, I hit the brake!

I feel like some kind of freak show,

I scream and cry, cuz I don't know,

The reason for my pain and death,

The reason I can't catch my breath.

I watch everybody die,

And they all watch as I cry.

No one wants to stay and help,

This bitter, lonesome welp.

I'd die for you, so try for me,

I've proved so true, you disagree.

I wish that I could know one's heart,

Before they tear my own apart.

Why is my life the way it is?

Why can't I just get out of this?

There's people all around me,

Why can't they try to be,

The friends that I need?

These tears that I bleed,

These "friends" make me scream,

Cuz, nothing's what it seems.

You're sitting next to me as I write this, but hey. All is well. This...is great. There are a couple of fantastic lines I could stick in here to show the emphasis that I enjoyed, but...I won't. Bah. Goodnight. =)
