Lonely Ones

(album: Grown-ish - 2021)

Everybody's talking about last night
The cops showed up when everyone was passed out
At my classmates house
No one told me where to go
But then again I'd never showed
Still I can't help but feeling left behind

This is for the lonely ones
The ones who go to bed and think they got no one
The shy kid at the playground
The runaways on Greyhounds
This is for the lonely ones
The ones who always wonder where their friends have gone
The boy who can't stop crying
The girl who gave up trying
This is for the lonely ones
The lonely ones
Yeah, I am just like you
I have been there too

Wake up feeling worse than yesterday
I'm pretty fucking far from being okay
Still I check my phone
Perfect smiles and perfect lives
Though I know it's all a lie
I can't help but feeling I should change

This is for the lonely ones
The ones who go to bed and think they got no one
The shy kid at the playground
The runaways on Greyhounds
This is for the lonely ones
The ones who always wonder where their friends have gone
The boy who can't stop crying
The girl who gave up trying

I know the voice inside your head saying you're never good enough
The times you stay in bed because it's too hard to get up
The friends who disappear when things just get a bit too rough
Time to make it stop

This is for the lonely ones
The ones who go to bed and think they got no one
The shy kid at the playground
The runaways on Greyhounds
This is for the lonely ones
The ones who always wonder where their friends have gone
The boy who can't stop crying
The girl who gave up trying
This is for the lonely ones
The lonely ones
Yeah, I am just like you
I have been there too
