Alone

Alone 
Alone in a world thats always on my case
No time to breathe in this never ending race
I reach out my hands in sheer desperation 
Not one soul notices in this over populated nation
Alone
Lord I've been good, I help when I can
Now I'm in need but I'm in sinking sand
Not even a rope or a much needed life line
No helping hand, neither a penny nor a dime
Alone
Have I been lying to myself all this time?
Were all my good deeds just a lie?
To give and to receive seems like a myth to me
And where is this good natured human that I have yet to see?
Alone
No more karma or just world beliefs
Because success transpires only for the selfish
I give up on this inter-dependence nonsense
Today, I live for me friends
Alone...not lonely
