A world full of people,
And I only have a few friends.
A world full of people, who hate me…
And I don’t know the reason.
Is it wrong to love people?
Is it wrong to want them…
To love you back?
Is it wrong to try to make friends?
Why am I lonely?
Lonely in this big world.
Why does everyone hate me?
Why I have no one?
I try to do my best.
I try to be nice.
I try to not be mean.
I try to not talk.
I try to not be rude.
I try to listen too.
I try to do the impossible.
And nothing has worked out.
I can’t understand what it is.
Did I make a mistake?
Did I offend someone?
But none will tell.
I want to make it better…
I only make it worst.
I have only one question:
Why is it me?
It is weird how
Good people end up bad,
Bad people end up good.
Did this ever happen to you?
I just don’t want it.
I don’t want to live like this
But I cannot show them,
Show them how I feel.
I have to be strong,
Even if I can’t.
I have to carry on,
Even if it’s hard.
But it looks impossible.
It looks very hard.
Why is it me?
I have to answer it.
