Analysis of Alone



I'm so lonely
Isn't there anyone who would text or call me?
I need that tonight
I say I'm okay
Every day
Sometimes I wish they could see through my lie
I wish they would hug me and say
"I know you're not"
I wish I had someone to say it's alright
I wish I didn't have to cry alone every night
I'm so alone
That sometimes I don't even feel real
I don't know what to do
I don't know where to turn
I don't know who talk to
I feel so alone
Isn't there anyone to talk to?
Isn't there someone who will stay with me?
Isn't there someone who will love me and make me feel like I'm actually something?
I know that there are so many people who feel this way
But either way I walk this alone
I'm on my own
I need someone to understand
Someone who will hold my hand
Walk with me, won't you please?
I'm breaking, and doing it all alone
Because no one can see through my lie
I'm not close to anyone anyways
I don't have best friends
Or a shoulder to cry on
I've always been on my own
I have to pull myself together
Because who wants to be around a downer?
I wish there was someone in this world
Who would be my best friend
Who would understand
But I keep walking this alone
