Stop.
Look at what you're thinking.
Look at you.
Seriously?
What gave you that idea?
----
I mean, look at you.
Why do you think that would work?
You really think they'd give you a chance?
You really think they'd like you?
Really,
Who in their right mind
Would like you?

Idiot.
Wanna-be.
Poser.
Why'd you even try?
They all said lies.
You, a likeable person?
Don't make me laugh.
---
You're a failure.
You'll never be like them.
You'll never fit in.
Just shut your mouth, before you
Embaress yourself.
You can't do anything right.
You can't even make one simple friend.

I'll never be like them.
I'm a failure.
