I’m lost
Can’t find myself
I’m lost
In my own selfishness
My own longing
Longing to belong
To become what I’m not
To be loved by all, not just some

I wanted to be part of the crowd
To be noticed by all
To be a “normal” teen
Living amongst savage beasts
I thought we were friends
I thought we were pals
Till you stabbed me in the back
And showed me how

How I could be so stupid
To think I could ever belong
Belong to a bunch of ignorant liars and thieves
We are not alike
We are not the same
Now I know how much my pride got in the way

It took who I am
And shred it to pieces
Leaving only what you wanted from me
My mind was consumed
My heart was devoured
My life was converted into one of you beasts

Well I got what I wanted
I am part of the pack
Part of the crowd that ate me as a snack
I watch with you
I stalk with you
I hunt with you
I run with you
I am part of you

I thought this would be exactly what I had always wanted
Instead I am in pain
I feel as if I’m going insane
I am lost between what was me
And what I am now
I’m gone
