We're All Mad Here

Oh My Friends

Oh my friends,

you thought you

knew me.

You never bothered to ask

what i didn't tell you.

You never knew the tears i shed,

you never knew that i dance in the rain.

Rain mixing with the tears.

You never knew why

i liked my bands so much.

You never knew why i am

so transfixed by fire.

You thought you knew me,

or maybe you never wanted to know.

I tried to tell you,

i tried to explain.

I was only greeted with stares and laughs.

I used to feel comforted,

happy with you, my friends.

Now i feel cold inside.

I know all sorts of things

about you.

But you never knew,

or even asked about me.

You never knew anything,

and never will.

Oh my friends,

why do you make me cry?
