Alone

I only feel this way when im alone
To the side I have been thrown
I feel like nobody cares
I feel like everyone stares

Why must I be alone in this world?
Everything seems blurred
Its always worse during the night
My state of mind is a frightful sight

All I do is think
I can't shut my brain off
No matter how many times I blink
The darkness remains

Darkness all around me
Can not see a thing
I can not breathe
Feel like im suffocating
Its the worst feeling

Is there anyone out there
Who understands what im going through?
Every sound seems to blare
Too loud for me to think
The pounding in my head
Makes me wish I was dead

I don't understand what's happening to me
It all seems like simply a dream
But I guess that's just wishful thinking
I feel as if im sinking

Sinking into a deep pool of quicksand
There's only so much I can withstand
Before I go mad, crazy, insane
I do not wish to remain this way

How will I escape this?
Do I even dare?
Do I have the courage?
It must be here somewhere

I have to fight
I have to live on
Must regain my sight
In order to move on
