I search for friends like other girls search for boyfriends
Nope, not this one
She’s too shallow
She raises her voice
This one even sounds like my mum
I know it’s weird but it’s been way too long.
Since I formed a close relationship with someone I genuinely liked.

Everyone is so nice here
But it feels like I’m forcing it all with them
Not that my old friends aren’t still there
But the girls are just so far away
One of them relocated just last year.

So many kind hearted, interesting people
But none of them are quite as weird as me
I’m looking for something who’s willing to be a misfit
Because sometimes we’re gonna do stupid things in public.
I’m looking for someone who shares my interests
Who doesn’t watch miraculous ladybug in their closet.

Why do all the best people
Live so far away
Why can’t all my online friends just
Be in my life, right here
I know its selfish
But I’m tired of being the friend who
Always feels left behind who
Everyone treats like a kid who
Has to walk on the road because there’s no room on the sidewalk, who
No one feels close enough to talk to about anything
Seems like everyone wants to be the listener
But no one wants to be listened to.

I love how openly secretive I am
Online, I look like I love a happy little life
Like the people who understand me are more than the sand on the seashore
But offline, I’m sitting in class alone, reading a book
Because I don’t want to look like the lonely type.

To all the people who feel the same way I do
I have no words of reassurance to offer you
But I can tell you this-
We’re in this together
It’s okay to be “friendless” for a while
I really hope this shit gets better.
