Lonely People

There is something about lonely people  
That seems to draw me in.  
Maybe it's 'cause they're vulnerable  
From fights they never win.  


Maybe it's from seclusion  
And the distance they insist  
That I begin to see the light inside,  
That hope that still persists.  


Maybe it's the pain and agony  
To the world that can't be hidden.  
Now suffering as an outsider,  
All their friends have said "Good Riddance".  


There is something about lonely people,  
And I can't tell you what that is.  
Maybe it's how they hold themselves  
That puts me in a friz.  


There happens to be so much more  
Than the quiet kid who acts so kind.  
Inside’s a heart and soul like mine  
With racing thoughts, obtrusive mind.  


Little do you realize  
'Til you put them to the test,  
That lonely people shine brightest,  
They laugh loudest and cry hardest.  


Lonely people are the best  
Once you can undeceive,  
'Cause once they start to open up,  
You'll be glad you didn't leave.
