Never Been

Never been one to keep a close friend.
Never been one to lead,
nor been the type
to follow such trend.

Even though I'm surrounded,
I go out on my own.

Keep telling your lies and il keep
spreading the word.
Listening in on sounds of a song bird.

Hanging by thread, il say
I sleep with the living
but
I awake with the dead.
