Cry

Do you ever feel like you’ve lost who you are
misjudged others by oh so far
gaining perspective becomes so hard
thinking you’re someone to disregard 

Growing up you fell out with your friends
at school unliked no one to depend
no one close there to the end 
though not hated drove them round bends 

And you start to see yourself an outcast
games where they pick teams you came last
now lonely days go by fast
becoming a lost soul in cast

When you’ve no one to turn to
and can’t start new
When you’ve no one concerned for you 
What do you do

I’m lost I’m confused I really need you
whoever you are please come through 
I’ve considerately looked out for a few
I’ve lost it all now though what do I do

It dawned on me I’m often rejected
From young to now like an infection
haunted as though natural selection 
dumb lowbrow knows only ejection

I wonder what they thought of me
2 faced friendships forge on me
I wonder why they thought of me
a face too hit unfortunately. 

This mountain of doubt pulls down in me 
take a chance avalanche 
climb the tree break a branch
with every missed advantage 
I gain baggage and a bandage
man up stand tall but I’m minuscule 
Crawling through cruelty 
caught up failing faulty 
I’ve lost my way I can’t see before me, 

Just one to come and care for me
like I cared so unselfishly 
support by standing there with me
save me with your company 
Save me please just come for me
Save me please would somebody
