Tonight I was alone in a room
With people wall to wall
I sat there at the table
And this is what I saw
I saw all kinds of couples
Dating,Engaged, Serious, and Married
But I'll be alone forever
And that feeling never buried
This is a new kind of lonely
The worse one of all
Knowing you'll never find that person
That's there to help when you fall
When the slow songs came on
And the couples danced and kissed
There I was at the table
Being dismissed
I'm not a wallflower; I love to dance
But I'm not the type of girl
Who puts an act on
And gives her hair a twirl
I hate this new lonely
It makes me want to cry
But I fought back the feelings
The ones making me want to die
But silently under the table
I was scratching my wrist
I wanted to cut so badly
I wanted no longer to exist
I saw the happy couples
And knew that wasn't for me
Because I'm not that type
I'm to depress, lonely, and ugly
I'd never wish this new lonely
On anyone
It's so unexplainable
And it really isn't fun
I hate the pain of watching those couples
And fighting back those tears
I hate the pain of hiding
And pretending that I don't fear
Fear that the loneliness
Will never go away
Knowing that feeling
Is always here to stay
This new kind of lonely Will kill me fast
Knowing I'll never have what they have
It'll never last
Looking at them all
Looking at each other
My sister, Her husband,
Their Friends, and my Brother
This new kind of lonely
Will kill someone else too
So say what your feeling
You'll feel better if you do
You won't have that feeling
You will find that one
Who takes that lonely away
Who makes life fun
