I think I've got alot of friends but, I don't here from them. What's another night on you're own? (Pre-Chorus) When your spending everyday on your own. And here it goes... (Chorus) I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare. I'm just a kid and I know that it's not fair. Nobody cares 'cause I'm all alone and the world is, Having more fun then me. (Verse 2) And maybe when the night is dead, I'll crawl into my bed, I'm staring at these four walls again. I'll try to think about the last time, I had a good time. Every ones got somewhere to go, (Pre-Chorus) And they're going to leave me here on my own, And here it goes... (Chorus) (Bridge) What the fuck is wrong with me? I don't fit in with anybody, How did this happen to me? Wide awake I'm bored and I can't fall asleep, And every night is the worst night ever. (Interlude) (Chorus x2) (Final Chorus) Tonight, I'm all alone tonight. Nobody cares tonight. 'Cause I'm just a kid tonight.
