I'm afraid of the day that everyone I know gets tired of me
And when I back away, they let me without question
Until I'm more alone than ever before
I'm so numb to everything
And so numb to everyone
I don't think I'm capable of feeling anything
Other than foreboding
And exhaustion
It's too much work
Putting on a mask and pretending
That the person that walks in doesn't make you want to rip your hair out
It's ten minutes before I can go home
Please go enjoy your life
So I can hate myself in peace
And go back to being alone
Instead of just feeling alone
While surrounded by a constant flood of people
Maybe it wouldn't be so awful to disappear
The only people that would miss me
Is whoever has to do my job
And the two nice old gentlemen that remember my name
