My Only Friend
Alone again
Waiting on my only friend
Alone again
It's always been and it will always be
Me against the world
A struggle with my sanity
My only friend is me
I tell myself I'll be alright
If I can make it through this lonely night
I buy a drink
I bum a smoke
I laugh and tell myself a joke
But I can't recall the punchline
Alone again
A conversation with my only friend
Alone again
I do my best but I'm poor company
An actor in this world
Pretending that I cannot see
My only friend is me
If someone smiled, I'd say hello
But no one does and so I sit alone
Another drink
A cloud of smoke
I laugh and tell myself a joke
"I'm lonely" is the punchline
Alone again
Drinking with my oldest friend
Alone again
It's always been and it will always be
Us against the world
Grappling with our sanity
My only friend is me
Pretending that I do not see
My only friend is me
In this world and all humanity
My only friend is me
