Lonely
“Lonely”
Sometimes your life gets hit with a giant hammer and breaks you into pieces,
We build it up over and over again, but it keeps breaking
You try to laugh to make everyone happy, but you know that you are not happy,
Outside you pretend to smile,
But deep inside, you’re just lonely
People keep asking “Are you ok?” a thousand times, but you still smile to pretend that you are happy
“I’m fine” is that what you want me to say,
Is that what you want to hear?
You see there are two types of “Tired”, one means that you need to sleep,
One is when you’re fading slowly,
And that slowly makes you feel lonely
Loneliness is not your desire, it’s not what you want, it’s not how you should be treated
There’s more out there to be happy, to be joyous, to be the person who move on, but you didn’t
You stay lonely,
You’ve been failing, been broken, been torn down to pieces
Putting the mask on your broken face because you’re a shame to show everyone
That you’re broken,
People don’t see how you feel, how you react, how great you can be, how positive you are
Because you’re lonely
Loneliness is not what we deserve, I know how slowly you are fading,
You want this life no more, but I know is not the ending.
