<br>
They call these states united
<br>I'm isolated from the rest
<br>Might as well call this state "catatonic"
<br>It's keeping me depressed
<br>
<br>And all my friends back home are busy living out their lives
<br>A life I should have had, a life of which i've been deprived
<br>This overcast's reminded me before
<br>(A million times, it's told me)
<br>That I don't live in the sunshine state anymore
<br>
<br>So, I'll sing into the sun until it sets, and i'll shelter no regrets
<br>When I leave this hell, I'm headed for a place that I'll call home
<br>And it doesn't matter who will miss me when I'm gone
<br>'Cause in spite of it all, I've never felt so alone
<br>
<br>I've hit a social crisis, I can't pretend that it's alright
<br>It's a problem when I write this down at 3 o'clock at night
<br>It's sad enough to say that my best friends are on the Net
<br>A net to catch me safely when I fall
<br>But when I'm the sweetest, nicest senior guy these local girls have met
<br>It's worse to say they don't know me at all
<br>
<br>So, I'll sing into the sun until it sets, and i'll shelter no regrets
<br>When I leave this hell, I'm headed for a place that I'll call home
<br>And it doesn't matter who will miss me when I'm gone
<br>'Cause in spite of it all, I've never felt so alone
<br>
<br>You might think I'm crazy
<br>But my dreams, they keep me sane in a place that's so inane
<br>That the locals have no sense of direction
<br>And I don't need a compass, cause the only way is out
<br>
<br>Check my vital signs, I'm living in a blank computer screen
<br>Well, this self-incarceration is how I made it through the year
<br>It might sound masochistic, but it's nonetheless serene
<br>When compared to the pretentious mess of people living here
<br>
<br>So, stop me when I've said enough, and I'll be on my way
<br>You'll be drowning in this standing water until you do the same
<br>And I'll tell the world I finally made it out alive
<br>Good riddance to the hell I left behind
<br>Good luck to my friends as I wave goodbye<br>
