Aren't you lonely?
You're always in your own little world,
aren't you tired of the way they talk about you?
He said
Isn't it better to be lonely
but having fun in your own world instead of being a side character in someone else's? Besides, I've been tired all my life-whats being tired a little while longer?

He said
We are all bad guys in someone else's life

He said
She chuckled
How could I be angry at the truth?
She started to walk away, towards the sun
Aren't you scared? Aren't you sad and exhausted from it all? Aren't you breaking?
He said
She continued walking
Of course I am, but I'm so used to it that I can feel all of those things in silence
He yelled after her

For the rest of his life
While she

She had moved on
To where no one knew
