Antisocial

Surrounded by friends
I shouldn't feel
So isolated from them

No, I don't have much to say
Does anyone really care anyway

Why should I try to pretend
That I want to be here with them
When I'd much rather be alone

No, I'm not mad at you
I'm just feeling sad and confused
And there's really no reason why

I'll just sit and stare
Watch all the empty emotions they share
And pretend that I care

It just seems pointless and trite
To spend this part of my life
With others who really
Don't know me at all
