The place just beyond my eyes, where my spirit flies.

You may want to run with the cool crowd,
You may want to live that sugary lie,
You may choose to do what you believe against,
Just to be popular.
To change everything you are to be,
"One of the guys."
Sitting alone at night saying,
"Oh god I hate myself."
All your gotta do...
Isn't very simple but it is worth it.
What do you fear?
Standing alone?
Or...
Feeling alone?
Tangible friends cross the bloodline,
All but few and far between they are,
If you don't want to feel alone...
Then stand alone,
With your beliefs and principles,
Stand with your conscience,
Stand with your true emotions,
But most of all...
Stand inside yourself.

Hey! I kinda liked this! Namely the lines:
What do you fear?
Standing alone?
Or...
Feeling alone?

I think that those lines REALLY defined alot! Nice work! It gave real flavour to it all!

Some deep thoughts here... but you did not neglect to provide a solution, which I appreciate...

Well done.
