I know everybody isn't like me
that they don't feel the same way I do

they don't choke on their words with a friend
they don't panic when things are too quiet
they don't react like I do in the endI know I am different
but I never needed you to say it
like I'm some kind of outcast or stray

that's when it seriously hurt
it translated to you don't belong anywhere
just go back to being a lonely introvert
