Why Doesn't Anybody Like Me?

Maybe you don't understand it, what keeps them awake at night

What goes through their little minds when you turn off the light?

Always having to say sorry, tears are stained on the pillow

Like the light of the moon, they can't be one

Can't exist without the sun

Let's think clearly for a while

Can he shine without a smile?

Why am I alone with no one to be found?

Looks like they know what's best for me

Why doesn't anybody like me? I don't understand

Guess I'll have to crawl inside and I don't know why

I'm sitting by myself, when the problem isn't mine

Been around the block a few times, been beat up by all his friends

Learning life is like a maze that never seems to end

Like an open book, blank pages left for only him to write

Life is short, this chapter takes so long

Can't tell the right from the wrong

It's so hard for you to place

An expression on his face

Why am I alone with no one to be found?

Looks like they know what's best for me

Why doesn't anybody like me? I don't understand

Guess I'll have to crawl inside and I don't know why

I'm sitting by myself, when the problem isn't mine

Why doesn't anybody like me? I don't understand

Why my friends and family left me

At six years old, he won't be taught a meaning to this mess

He'll just have to take a guess, and make his own plan

And we'll never see the child that was forced to be a man
