Alone and Terrified

i am alone and terrified
i wonder if anybody can hear my cry
i hear a silent plea for help
i see a dead and lonely future ahead
i want someone to care
i am alone and terrified
i pretend nothing is wrong
i feel dead and empty inside
i touch the hollow place in my chest
i worry i will always be alone
i cry when im all alone
i am alone and terrified
i understand someone out there has to care
i say everything is fine
i dream things will get better
i try to have more hope
i hope i never have this feeling again
i am alone and terrified!
