Only I Exist

I turn on my music
Put my headphones on
Close my door
Turn up the music,

I ignore the presence of the world,
I lay down
I ignore you
Now I fall asleep
With the headphones on,

There is a Do Not Disturb sign
On the door
You leave me
And now I am all alone,

And now I am blocking out
The entire world
With my headphones on

Only I exist.

I heard a song and it was: Block Out The World and i liked it so I wrote about it and I just thought of my life and put it together and thats what inspired me to write it.
