I continue to burn the Midnight Lamp...alone

[setinthewest]

Well.... its been building itself up for
awhile now... and over vacation it
reached the top and overflowed
Ive got a permanent smile on my face
now and i feel like im in a daze

People say they are so lonely because
they need love... well they're wrong
they're lonely because they make themselves
that way.. if you dont think about it
long enough, it goes away and youll realize
you arent lonely at all
Loneliness is only a state of mind that people
put themselves in when they see other people
together and they think "That should be me"
If you stop and take a look at what youve
got, really take a good look, what do you
need another person for?
This vacation taught me that, and i feel
bad for all you lonely people now
Loneliness is pathetic
but please dont think im trying to put anyone
down or be an asshole, but why waste your
precious young life worrying about who
you are gonna be with
you should be worrying about how much time you
have left to have fun and be what you are
a kid
Ryan quints journal about summers really opened
up my mind to the fact that i dont have much time
left to be who i wanna be and do what i wanna do
so im with him on trying to make this summer the best
ever...

im so happy now and if everyone knew how i feal
im really sure youd all be jealous of me
i have no worries
i have no fears
and most of all... im not lonely.. at all

so if you see me in the hall and i look sad
dont bother asking "Whats wrong?"
because ill simply reply "Nothing at all..." and give you a smile

I feel like im in a daze and i cant wipe the smile off my face
