Sometimes I have to ask myself
If I want this
If I want others around me
To know who I am
If I want people
To be able to identify with me

I've always felt so alone
So when I don't feel alone
Is it that I don't feel right?
Or am I really trying to protect these 'friends'?

Am I selfish?
Or selfless?
I'm not sure if I know
But I'm tired
Of living with people
People who are so ready
To step on everything you are
And wipe it off from their shoes
Before walking away

I'm tired of having people leave me
When I feel like
It should be me
Leaving them

I suppose I don't feel it's fair
But since when was life fair?

I honestly think I'm better off alone
The question is
Am I right?
