Alone and Empty

I'm feeling secluded and alone again I'm lost in my tiny room I'm in a grave without the funeral It's my social pit of doom How did life become so empty Do I have a sign which is saying no entry Maybe I'm to blame for this social suicide Is this all part of life's rocky ride I'm left with just me and my thoughts Feeling all out of sorts My own company is my worst enemy It's sapping and wasting my energy But I will never come crying to you for sympathy My sheets will not become tear stained with blood There will be no flood I'm stuck in this mud Is anyone listening Is that understood Or am I just misunderstood Where are the shoulders on which to lean I don't know what's happening This must be a dream So if you won't walk with me I will walk alone Through my zone to find my throne Why is it that inside I keep feeling so afraid I fear this isolation which I have made Has become so entwined on me I've become my own worst slave and enemy Living deaf dumb and blind is leaving me behind It's getting me nothing which I try to find My confidence is low, how do I strive on I don't want to mess up anymore I don't want to get it wrong It's hard enough to believe in yourself When you are not believing in me emphatically I'm left with this loneliness enticing me sarcastically And so I'm left alone and empty In which it has gripped me And it has stripped me down again This destructive loneliness It won't leave as my one true only friend
