i hate it
i hate them
why don't they know that everything is wrong
i'm wrong
i wish they would help me
i wish that they knew
they're never here when i need them
i need my pills
they're not here
i need someone
no
i don't need anyone
they can't know
then i won't be normal
i'll never be a functioning human being
i'll be a little less shiny, a little less appealing
