Why am I here,
Surrounded but friends,
Surrounded by love,
But still feeling empty?
Why can't I hear
All of the words
And all of the lies,
That they tell me?
Why,
Why,
Why
Can't I answer?
Why am I asking an empty page
Instead of the "friends" across from me?
Why am I too scared to talk,
To those I've known since elementary?
Why?
Why?
Why don't I know?
When will I know,
Why I feel so empty,
And when will I know,
Why I can't seem to be friendly?
Why is my life always so hollow?
Why does my life feel like it's lost all joy?
Why don't I know
Why I'm asking why?
Why am I wondering
About these goddamn "why's"
Instead of living the life that lies
Just out of reach?
