Forever Lonely

Tired

In life you can only get so low

Only get so lonely and take so many blows

I don't want to do this anymore

To myself I had already swore

To be someone's everything

Feel wanted; with someone who would do anything

I just want to be happy but everything seems to bring on a breakdown

Everyone says you'll be okay until they see me amidst a meltdown

I don't want to be broken anymore I don't want to be alone

I feel like not matter how many times I call no one seems to pick up the phone

Life feels so empty like no one is there

I've stripped myself down I'm completely bare.

I'm so depressed but I keep pretending

Maybe a fake smile upon my face will bring a good ending

Who am I kidding? Nothing is okay

I have a meltdown and he says "What have you done today"

Everyone expects something from me

They take what they can get, all of it free

No one care who I am or what I've done

All they do is gather what they can and run

I try pretending making myself believe

But I'm the end I already know he's just going to leave.
