I feel alone, alone is how I feel.
So many people near me, lonely can't be real.
I am trapped alone inside my head.
In my car, at work, and in my bed.
I feel no connection to the outside world.
Hidden from my friends, my family, even my girl.
They all love me, need me, and trust me.
I can hide all my pain, so they cannot see.
I feel alone, am I the only one with this thought?
But I should never feel alone, I was always taught.
I am holding thier world, thier support, thier rock.
I just take it all in and I watch the clock.
They can't see me fall, needing rest, or cry.
Some can't help themseves, like a bird who can't fly.
Sometimes they need me so much, I cannot breathe.
I don't have the option, to pack up and leave.
The bruises and scrapes, I know those will mend.
But I still sit alone, and wait for the end.
