The Stray Behind

Self conscious and scared
I felt my heart getting teared.
The nights getting cold
I know I'm not the only one alone
I'm trying to fit in
but, I know I can't win
I feel buried alive,
like something's eating my inside.
This isn't real
a life you just can't feel
Like there's water in my lungs
I realize how far I have come undone
please tell me I am not alone.
