Being Alone
Earth is like a glass, it breaks like your heart
Figuring the determination from people, that keeps us apart
We sit here and think life will last forever
We're getting older now, so let's get ourselves together
Families will be gone soon, there will be nothing but memories
But if you never came around, you will be quite lonely
So you grow old by yourself, with no one to help
You die all alone with no one around you but yourself
No one at your funeral to say those kind words
Because you never gave anyone a chance when you were alive on this earth.
As we leave your repast and go back to our house
You will not be on anyone mind, nothing about you will come out of our mouth
You will be just an afterthought like mist in the air
Disappearing from our mind and no one will care
So stop being a loner, take time, and enjoy your family
We love you to death, but only if you could see
