alone
feeling alone is the outside looking in
at the crowd filled with self-doubt you don't fit in
hurting so bad your heart easily tares apart tissue thin
trying to get over it jump man above the rim
being alone you either get stronger or break
become more vulnerable or skin forms thick as a milkshake fighting to float from drowning your tears deep as a lake self reflection is a horror nightmare keeping you awake
no shoulder to lean on or cry
your whole self existence you start to question why
because the truth can hurt more than a lie
and the truth might be alone you die
