lyrics

Alone in a crowd
with not much to say
I'm not sure I fit in here anyway
Everyone else here seems to be ok.

I'm ready to talk
but I've too much to say
And no one wants to hear it all anyway
So I'm saving it here for now, today

I wrote it down so I would feel better
but I don't think I can send this letter
I don't think I can deal with the fallout
I need some time so I can relax
Some decent sleep and this all may pass
It's safer to just be alone, without

Taking my time
Minding my own
Could be forgiven if I could be known
but that is more than I can let be shown

Keeping it here
Bottled inside
To share it now after all I've denied
would just be a selfish act of pride.

I wrote it down so I would feel better
but I don't think I can send this letter
I don't think I can deal with the fallout
I need some time so I can relax
A decent sleep and this all may pass
It's safer to just be alone, without
