Analysis of No One
Everyone needs somebody,
Someone to hold, to lean on,
to trust, and someone to love.
But, I'm a no one
Nobody wants to be a no one.
You can only count on you.
Only the shadows can see
what your going through.
When your a no one,
It's like you're
lost in the crowd,
No one sees you
or hears you.
No one seems to care.
It feels like you're
all alone,
Left standing
lost in the emptiness
that engulfs the very soul...
of a No One.
