Call It What You Want

Called a friend of mine today
 Just wanted to see how he was
 He let the phone ring though he was home
 It's just something that he does
 I would have asked him what was new
 If there'd been trouble he'd been through
 Was he working or been to school
 Was there something he'd like to do?
 He's alone he doesn't care
 Say's it's how he wants to be
 Says he like a lonely day
 Say's he's better off that way
 Looked in his room from dawn to dusk
 No one knows just what he does
 He wasn't seen for one whole year
 No-one wondered where he was
 He's home from work he makes his dinner
 Reads a book, turn on the news
 He's got a door but doesn't need one
 Has a car he'll never use
 Never goes out at night
 I'll stay home, thanks I'll be just fine
 But that's not how it always was
 He used to do things all the time
