There's many horrible things in life
But
The worst has to be being lonely

Being lonely hurts
You're empty inside and there's nobody to talk you through it
You're always alone
You leave your phone at home on accident and when you return 12 hours later, you find nothing
Nobody cares about you
Nobody checks in
Nobody asks
Nobody

Being lonely hurts
Because it's the fire inside you that makes you a human that is being blown out
It's being deprived of oxygen and suffocating
It's like that
It's like the stars not showing in busy city's, you just see an empty black sky
It's the universe
Infinite
Always growing
The loneliness always growing

Being lonely hurts
Because when you're crying you have nobody to talk to about it
Because on boring days there's nobody to hang out with
Because everybody leaves eventually and you're so used to it

Being lonely hurts
It's something I talk to my therapist about
I need to make more friends, he says
I need to talk to people my age
I need to talk to girls my age
I need to talk to anybody
I have to remember I'm still a teenager
I'm still allowed to have fun
But I have nobody to have fun with

Being lonely hurts
Because on the dark days, when the rain is pouring
You have nobody to worry about
When they ask you to partner up at school you always end up alone
When they even mention group projects you just ask if you can do it alone because you know nobody will want you

Being lonely hurts
And people who have friends who care about them take it for granted

Being lonely hurts
So
So
Bad
