Anywhere

I don't like it here
But I'd rather be here than anywhere
Today is too hard
                             too silent
                             too empty
I don't need to smile
             It's not inside
                            What's the point?
Too many people
            Caring
                            In all the wrong ways
Talking about petty things
I don't want to be here
But I'd rather be here than anywhere
