unique problem

The problem is, these
malcontents - borderline
misanthropes, most of them -

(I don't say they haven't had
reason to be)

they hate the happy we're trying so hard
to fake. They think

that they're the only ones
about to break;

They think

their alienation's
special. And we
can't see. Like we

keep trying to feel unique?

- but they really do.
They hate it,
too.

And it's getting so bad,
they're each going to have to do

something irrevocable
to prove it to you,

how fake your fake happy is,
and the world

is
horrible,
oh God

if only they knew
