I don't know if I have ever mentioned this in any of my rants before, but this used to be my favorite song when I was younger. I am 16 now, and this is still one of my favorite songs.
Growing up I never really had any friends because no one liked me. I got my first friend in the 5th grade at the age of 10 when I moved to the house I live in now.
My first friend was a girl who was allergic to EVERYTHING, but I was still excited because at least one person wanted to be my friend. No, I couldn't bring her any homemade snacks my mom made or give her any packaged treats without checking the label, but I was still thankful to her.
Before this I was so lonely. My mom didn't want me to miss out on any school events so I went to most. By myself, with no friends.
Every time I would hum this song in my head while actually dancing by myself. The other kids around me will dance with their friends or their little boyfriends and girlfriends while I would dance by myself.
But truthfully I couldn't have cared less. I had to learn that if no one wanted to be my friend, then I had to be friends by myself.
Dancin' by myself
I don't need no help
Wishin' you were here
To see me
Dancin' by myself
Got nobody else
But I don't really care
Believe me...
