Loners



Here we go back to the story of life of a kid

He was special, life’s like an auction couldn’t even place a bid

Most of the time he felt hollow, empty, sad and alone

He didn’t have friends to warm up his home

He listened in class he didn’t get a break

As for people who cared, HA! Never get that clean slate

When he tries to be nice, warm up to someone

He is betrayed, hurt, and poof, he was done

Anger and sorrow when u just want a hug

Confess to the person u trust most makes u feel small as a bug

Everyone around u is warm and happy like a bear in their dens

Cold air and darkness are my only friends

I hear bang bang bang from the barrel of a gun

I scream “I shoot next” at the top of my lungs

I️ fire and fire into the sun

Bang bang, drop drop, everything falls one by one

There are three people, u can always count on

Me, myself and I️ everyone else just gone

Listen to this closely, sharp as a dart

No friends equals Loneliness, new hole in your heart
