Here I am, all left out
Feeling like a distant memory
How long have I been out?
When's the right time for me to leave?
Too hard now to keep it cool
No one here wants me around
I'm just in love with my drink
Wondering how I should go?
I'm seeded
All I want is another round
To hide my shame
I want to rid myself
Help, please, bury me
Can't keep still
Frustrated
Falling off my porch
Guilty of
Complaining
All about myself
I don't want to stay anymore
Sorry for being like this
(Please don't hurt me anymore)
I feel a sickness, some sort of sickness
(Why don't you go do something meaningful for once and go back to school? Pick up a book or something you piece of useless scum. You're nothing, a nobody, an outsider who will have no friends, and as your mother, I forbid you to do anything fun.)

Slowly losing everything
I'll be alright
No control with my own mind
I'll be alright
Seeing funny, nothing's right
I'll be just fine
Hoping that my time is up
I'll be alright
I wanted to make a change
Even though that I will stay the same
Rising Worries
Nothing's gained
I know that I will dissipate
Is it really up to me or you? (or you?)
I don't even know what I should do
Feeling nervous and I am afraid
Unsure if I wanna live today
Slowly losing everything
I'll be alright
No control with my own mind
I'll be alright
Seeing funny, nothing's right
I'll be just fine
Hoping that my time is up
I'll be alright
I wish I did nothing today
I have to leave my own place
It's too loud for me

I can't dream
I can't sleep
I can't see
I can't breathe
Can you help me out?
Wasted words (Are coming out of me)
Holding back (It's not what it seems)
I don't know (What it all means)
It's too dark
Can you help me out?

Here's to
Working
Towards
Nothing
Washed up
Stressed out
The pain
Spreads into my own head
Today has dragged out too long
The pills don't work anymore
I just want to go home
It is now digging into
My right eye socket
How could anybody live a day like this?
I need a hole
For me to fall into
I think i had too much
I just want to go home
and maybe wind up dead

I'm so Bored at Home

I am, so lost
Confused
Always
Boredom
Hits me
I need
Someone
Someone to do nothing with
I need someone to do nothing with
Oh god I'm so alone
Ran out, of fun
Not like
Everyone
I got, myself
But
I need someone

Hey, how are you?
It's me again
Did you eat yet?
Oh you did? That's great
Hope you're doing good
It's getting cold here
Bet the sun's feeling great
For you
On the other side
mmmm...(He clears up his throat mid-conversation on the phone)
It's all I want tonight
Just to talk to you
For an hour or two
Can, you, hear, me?
Running, out, of time
My grandson knows how to fix this
I'll go knock on his door
He woke up around midnight
He looked pretty annoyed
Told me to just buy a new card
He's really good with phones
It's all I want tonight
Just to talk to you
For an hour or two
Back in Chinatown
To get that card
How much is this?
That's way too much
I don't have that long
I'll spend the rest
Hope to talk to you, really soon
