Why is it everything's all loneliness with me?
I guess sometimes I try too hard, and sometimes you cause it,
but it always carries on and on.
"What did you ever become?" you asked. I said,
"I was told to be smiles and bright eyed happiness,
but sometimes I can't find anything to laugh at."
"I don't want to be here." you said.
It seems like I almost always have that effect on everyone.
I say to myself, "You aren't the first one to think like me."
And I just want to be like everyone else.
Why can't I be everything to everyone else, or maybe just to you?
Just once I would like to be something.
And I wouldn't mind if you'd like to be with me.
