Lyrics for Lonely Boy

I ain't gonna leave the building Just lie here and stare at the ceiling There's nothing out there that can give me no healing And right now I'm the only one that can hurt my feelings I'm staying inside today I'm hiding away Oh yeah! Let me tell you how it goes here in the big city There ain't no mercy and there ain't no pity And everywhere you turn there are hundreds of humans All opening the door saying "Hello, Newman" And hearing people hearing themselves talk I tell you those are fingernails where there should've been chalk I heard this one guy tell this other one to suck his cock And he was the richest, smartest guy on the block Oh, I, leave me alone I, leave me alone Oh no no no no no 'Cause I just want to be alone So don't call me on the telephone Why in the world would I pay T-Mobile When every day's the same, feeling antisocial I'm minding my own business like I'm supposed to So when I get home no one's coming over Shot down dead red rover, red rover, yeah! People try to confuse me And people try to abuse me And people try to frustrate me And people try to castrate me Uh-huh and people messing with my mental health I tell you they just do it cause they hate themselves And I've been walking around I'm try'na love myself And I don't wanna talk to anyone else You know, I, leave me alone I, leave me alone Leave me alone I just want to be alone I don't wanna drown amongst the droves of drones I don't wanna hear that I'm what I own, oh no I don't wanna feel my Y-chromosome So don't look at me like I ain't full grown or Welcome to the terror dome Welcome to Hell Welcome home Lonely Boy coming down the street, better get out the way The first person that he meets is probably going to pay I'd say definitely He woke up feeling like a loser, now he's itching to win Yeah he did it yesterday, now he's gonna do it again Hey - stay away He hates to be awake Stay away, he doesn't wanna hurt you Stay away, he doesn't wanna hurt you A lonely boy is an angry boy A lonely boy is an angry boy
