Runner

No one understands No one ever will I seek sympathy from no man I just swallow the bitter pill Clouds rain down upon my life Torrents wash the pain away Ive grown accustomed to the losses No expectations things will change So now i stand before my mirror Paste on my best phoney smile And pass out my best shallow greetings As my soul is screaming all the while Ive crossed so many oceans Travelled endlessly far and wide Some say im blessed to have seen so much When really im just trying to hide I hide from the kiss of intimacy Or the soft caress that lets me down I stay barren of empty dreams and promises Some may judge me as unsound. But no one really understands And no one ever will Perhaps no one cares anyways Perhaps no one ever will

We do care, Carl, there are so many of us like you, it is pain that binds us.
