I know I barely have friends
I know I may be forever alone
I know I don't do much
But can you just leave it alone?

I know I'm no athlete
I know I'm no socialite
I know it seems weird
But I think it's alright

I know you disagree
I know you expect more
I know you imagined different
I'm sorry I'm such a bore

I know you mean well
I know you mean no harm
I know you want the best
But I see no charm

I'm fine with 3 friends
I don't need parties
I usually enjoy solitude
But not when you remind me

I need more friends
I need to go out
I need to get a life
That's what it's all about

Must you bring me down?
Must you make me feel less?
Must you crush my spirit?
Put a drain on my happiness?

I just want to live life
Somewhat care free
But I have this aching question
Why can't I just be happy?
