The Sad Old Man from the Next Town Over

I'm a common scene.
Things are about as bad as they look at this point.
What you see is what I am.
Feeling like a crazy kind of killer with a normal face.
Compatible with nothing but a list of reasons to
not even try anymore.
Life's a chore,
This year's been such a waste of time
and everyone I know wants to kill themselves.
This winter hit hard, and it's still pretty early on.
Sadness is contagious, and I have this sick sensation
that I have been here atleast two or three times before.
Life's a bore,
mine has especially been dragging on,
and everyone I know only pretends to care.
