Am I Worth Knowing?

Am I worth knowing?
once upon a time
I was adored
that doesn't happen anymore

Am I worth loving?
once upon a time
I was embraced
that sort of thing has been replaced

I live alone
I sleep alone
No one comes near me anymore

I laugh alone
I cry alone
no one knows me at my core

there was a time when I was treasured as a friend
when someone wanted to be close to me all the time
there was a time people said there'd be no end
to the love we shared that made life so sublime

now after years of rejection I am wondering
am I worth knowing?
no one seems to want to sing the song I sing
am I worth knowing?

it's a sad song today
a lonely song today
creativity wanes
I'm drowning in pains

so lonely, so sad
did I do something bad
what happened to
all the friends I had

what happened to love
and people who cared
they drifted away
now nobody's here

I live alone
I sleep alone
No one comes near me anymore

I laugh alone
I cry alone
no one knows me at my core

now after years of reflection I am wondering
am I worth knowing?
no one seems to want to sing the song I sing
am I worth knowing?

Am I worth knowing?
once upon a time
I was adored
that doesn't happen anymore

Am I worth loving?
once upon a time
I was embraced
that sort of thing has been replaced

I live alone
I sleep alone
No one comes near me anymore

I laugh alone
I cry alone
no one knows me at my core
