-Do tell me-

-alone-

"Being alone is worse than getting hurt"

I don't remember who said that or where I read it from

I only remember reading it over, and over, and over

I've never gotten it wail at the same time I understood

I've always been alone, even when surrounded

A wall blocking all connections, and I can't bring myself to care

So I act as though we're friends

As if I'm not alone and hurting to connect

What is it like to connect with someone, I've never done it before

Half the time I don't even know you're name

Always telling lies, never sharing anything

I can't keep track of the lies anymore

So I pushed myself to be even more alone

No longer surrounded and the time just passes by

Always getting hurt, everything hurts

But is being alone really worse than the pain

The pain of getting hurt, I can't tell

Always in pain, always alone

I guess I will never know which is worse in the end
