Lonely

He likes her,
She likes him,
They get together,
They're more than friends.

I'm all alone,
in the corner of the room,
wonderin' how she got you,
when I couldn't do that too.

Maybe I'm just imperfect and ugly,
or just not cute enough.
Maybe I cut too much,
Or am too rough.

But in the end, I'm still alone
alone.
Over in this corner of the room on my own
own.

Can I expect anybody to pick up the shards?
Of who I used to be, I mean?
Not really, I guess, because there's a lot
and I'm not what I really seem.

But still I can feel lonely, can't I?
I can feel a little upset.
Because I can feel bitter as they all giggle together,
when I'm alone in the end.

I look in the mirror and all I see are flaws
in my skin, cracks in who I am.
I don't even want to face this anymore,
I don't want to make myself understand.

I'll just keep hiding away, lonely as usual,
I'll never reach out to another, take that risk? Never.
And I'll just keep existing, lonely, lonely.
I'll just keeping existing like this forever.
