How To Be Alone
How To Be Alone
Step one, lose your ability to trust another
Many lack empathy, even for a brother.
Step two, lose your urge to interact with your peers
Turn your back to them, they pray and play on your fears.
Step three, learn to enjoy your own company
Every friend or aqquaintance, could be a future enemy.
Step four, to your heart close it's doors.
Lock them up tight, before its spilled on the floor.
Step five, remember you once did try.
It was before the backs turned, and you still felt alive.
Step six, cut society off and see many of it's problems are fixed.
There is always a stigma, and you may fall under that list.
Many lack empathy, even for a brother.
Step two, lose your urge to interact with your peers
Turn your back to them, they pray and play on your fears.
Step three, learn to enjoy your own company
Every friend or aqquaintance, could be a future enemy.

Lock them up tight, before its spilled on the floor.

It was before the backs turned, and you still felt alive.
Step six, cut society off and see many of it's problems are fixed.
There is always a stigma, and you may fall under that list.
