Always worrying of what could happen
Constantly worrying about the bad
But in the end, they were just so sad.

Even when they reassured him
He'd always have that doubt
That people didn't like him
So he wouldn't even go out

The responsibility
The anxiety
The things that life brought
Made him emotionally weak

Self image issues
Abnormal eating habits
The mirror that he couldn't trust

Loss of will to live
No more interpersonal contact
No reason to try
Just another bust

Even when they reassured him
He'd always have that doubt
That people didn't like him
So he wouldn't even go out

Headphones and paper
That's all he ever needed
That pencil drew and wrote
Characters of fiction

Lonely and forgotten
All that was not new
No significance and value

The others opposed
Cheered, and reassured
That you're forever in their minds
And that you'll never be forgotten

Remind you, we will
You're all we ever asked for
And that won't change...

Forget what's on your mind
Ignore your self doubt
Because you're doing alright...
Today

(I'M OKAY! I PROMISE!)
