Analysis of Melancholy



I don't know
I just want someone who will be there
Someone who will be there when I'm down
Someone who will be there when I'm happy
Someone who will be there through all the ups and downs
I've tried to controle my emotions
I've tried to stay tough
I've tried to not think of it a lot
But I've failed
I can't hold it in any longer
It feels lonely in here
It gets tiring
