People around me,
Clapping hands in laughter...with glee,
I sit there, quiet, lost in my own world,
Their joie-de-vivre does not touch me.

A rocking crowd,
Excitement all around,
I stand there alone, numbed,
Screaming inside, not a word from me aloud.

I'm trying to pull myself up,
I'm trying to push myself on,
I cant seem to shrug the sadness,
The noiselessness inside of me, keeps screaming on.
