I recognize the faces
And all of the places,
But never did I long
To feel like I belong.
Everyone is happy-
Some even appear sappy,
But there's one who hides and pouts
Yet easily stands out.
Familiar are the sounds and sights
Tears my eyes can't fight-
A want to just go
But this is the home I know.
I lie down to sleep-
And instead I weep
For my life and my friends
Whom I've lost in this end.
