&quot;&#039;How could I be so lost,<br /> In a place I know so well?<br /> How could I be so broken,<br /> In a family so together?<br /> How could I be so lonely,<br /> Surrounded by so many?<br /> How could I be so unhappy,<br /> Surrounded by so much beauty?<br /> How could I be me,<br /> When even I remain a mystery?&quot;
