I feel more alone in a crowd
Than when no one's physically around
Everyone's talking around me
Meanwhile I just sit here silently
I try to say something
But out comes nothing
Nobody wants to listen
May as well keep silent then
The voices haunting me
Keep me enough company
They don't let me speak
They call me a freak
Tell me everyone's judging me
They won't let me free
Scratch at my wrists
Chew on my lip
Try to calm down
But I'm just focused on all the people around
I can't make a sound
My voice can't be found
They're not laughing with me
They're laughing at me
I'm scared to be here
Always locked in a constant fear
Social anxiety
Takes control of me
