I'M Feeling Defeated

How can one be lonely
When billions live on earth
There's five, ten, or even 100
To each and every one of us
So how can one be lonely
There's people all around
It only takes a second 
To help a stranger 
Out
So find someone 
Who's standing close
Strike up a conversation 
Take your time, you might find
That you can bridge the separation
So how can I be so damn lonely
When there's people all around
I might be scared,but I do care
I suffer from the inside out
I've known this all along
And I'm well aware of the
Friends I could've found 
Once again I feel defeated
Alone with a tear in my eye
I can't fight back this feeling
That there's more in this life
Day has now ended
Sleeps on its way
I'll try with courage tomorrow 
To make a friend and say "Hey"
