Better than Being AloneA Poem by Alyssa
Maybe if we can stop yelling
I can start telling my story It’s not boring, not bad I promise It seems like you’re caring About me more than you should that’s dangerous territory I have fallen there before So call up your friends and call up your family Don’t you hear the dial tone Call up your friends if you think you have any Better than being alone And I wish, I wish, I wish you’d stop calling me When I can hear ringing it gets harder and harder to sleep I wish, I wish, I wish you would delete my number from your phone But I guess its my fault, I always pick up Better than being alone She talks loudly oh so loudly Wonder if you even know how to yell She says she’s a good person, such a good person But even good ones go to hell And I can see the streets getting darker It’s how I can tell that its raining now I can see the people running faster I can tell it’s raining harder now So call up your friends and call up your family Don’t you hear my dial tone Call up your friends if you still think you have any Better than being alone And I wish, I wish, I wish you’d stop calling me When I can hear ringing it gets harder and harder to sleep I wish, I wish, I wish you would delete my number from your phone But I guess its my fault, I always pick up Better than being alone I’ve got a problem You are my problem Do you think I still listen to your songs? I’ve got a problem You are my problem If you tested me, I’d get every word wrong I’d get every one wrong I’ve got no idea what the lyrics are I’d get every one wrong You make everything wrong I’m tired Because you only ever call my phone When it’s raining and it’s late and I wanna go to bed Better than being alone Better than being alone And I wish, I wish, I wish you’d stop calling me When I can hear ringing it gets harder and harder to sleep I wish, I wish, I wish you would delete my number from your phone But I guess its my fault, I’m gonna stop picking up Better when being alone © 2015 Alyssa |
