Goodnight

As I lay here in my bed

All my thoughts run through my head

Late at night I cry myself to sleep

Now we all consider myself weak

 

As I lay here I get some sneers

Now I can really feel the tears

Thinking of when they told me to die

All I could do was cry

 

When I got up to walk

I could hear everyone talk

As I stood there without a sound

People stopped and looked at the ground

 

I decided that I didn’t belong here

I guess that I just have to move on dear

People always said I was a fool

And that I wasn’t even cool

 

This is all I could take

I guess that i’m just a mistake

As I lay here and think

All their words began to sink

 

As I lay here with all my thoughts

I ask “Is this what i’ve been taught”

I guess I need to get out of sight

So, this is where I say goodnight

 

This world is so vain

All I’ll ever be is so lame

As my world slowly fades away

There’s only one word I can say

Goodnight
