Alone

Why am I alone?

This world seems to offer no home

What choice do we have but to turn to stone?

It's the only treatment I've ever been shown

This is life, it seems full of cruelty and hate

Hell, my best friend even told me the noose was my fate

But if loneliness has taught me one thing

It's that you get stronger with each passing sting

As I live through my life, day by day

Sometimes I wonder if there's a reason for the pain

People never show kindness until someone is gone

Then act like that person was great all along

But don't realize their words were the true cause of death

It was the only escape, a bullet offering rest

As I realize these truths, a new one comes to light

People seem to face these truths with spite

All for what? To live with delusional mind?

Where you are always right and no fault to find?

I want my pain to leave, I really do

But being alone takes its toll on you
