SOTD – The Boy Least Likely To “I Keep Myself to Myself”

The Boy Least Likely To “I Keep Myself to Myself”

I keep myself to myself
And no one else
Knows how it feels to be me and I’m
All by myself

I got a tick and a twitch
For everything
The world is made up of boxes that
I don’t fit in

Sometimes when I look up at the stars I
Feels so alone because I know
That no one can ever
See the world the same way I do

I am afraid of falling in love so I
Keep myself to myself
I want a cookie and I need a hug but I
Keep myself to myself

I keep myself to myself
And when I’m sad
I comfort myself with thinking that
No one understands

Sometimes I dig through the shells at a low tide
I wonder if anything fragile
Could ever survive in
this world without getting broken

I am afraid of things that can hurt so I
Keep myself to myself
I feel completely alone in the world and I
Keep myself to myself to myself

And so
wherever I go
I wear
My heart uncomfortably on my sleeve

I put my elbows up over my ears and I
Keep myself to myself
I close my eyes and the world disappears and I
Keep myself to myself
I’ll never be lonely when I am alone and I
Keep myself to myself
I live in a little world of my own and I
Keep myself to myself to myself

I keep myself to myself
I keep myself to myself to myself
