You laugh and joke and mess about
Not stopping to pause and stare
That’s is why you fail to notice
In the middle of the room, her sitting there
She seems really happy
She seems really glad
But if you glanced back over there
You’ll see she’s really sad
The seat beside her empty
The other one faces away
You can see the thoughts deep in her eyes
How to survive another day?
She walks along, head held high
Her footsteps hardly slowing
How ironic a seemly independent girl
Does not know where she’s going
She flitters in and out the group
Showing no definite belonging
But when her faces seems not to care
Her heart is hopelessly longing
You wonder why she’s so quiet
A loner from the crowd
But I can see her screaming
She’s screaming really loud
She wants to have an ally
Where she doesn’t blend
Where she’s accepted and appreciated
She only wants a friend
