Can you see me?
Can you hear me?
Why do you look through me?
It's like I'm not here.
You walk straight past without acknowledgement.
Am I a ghost? A spirit?
Am I not worth the effort?
I know you'll need me and then you'll talk to me.
And then discard me, when your need is fulfilled.
I'd say you'll miss me when I'm gone but how can that be true. You miss me while I'm here.
I am invisible.
I am background.
I am noise.

Emptiness surrounds. Loveless baron grounds. No arms wrapped tightly around. Nothing lost, nothing found. A desolate place. An isolated space. An emotionless face. A body covered in lace.
Send me home. Before the storm. Don't leave me standing in the rain. Beating at your door. Oh send me home. Send me home. Let me climb into my own bed. Where I may rest my sorry head. Oh send me home.
When. The day is over. Will you be there to follow. As we walk alone. Will you. Look up at the light. Bleeding from the starry sky. As we walk on home. Would you. Take my hand in yours.
I went for a walk. To get some fresh air. I went through the town. There's nobody there. Where have they gone. Where could they be. I thought to myself. It's just lonely old me.
Just somewhere out there singing the same sad song Drifting past street lights dim glow Dancing with never ending shadows Just somewhere out there singing the same sad song Drifting like a ghost...
Abandoned, here I lie Unwanted, will not try Dejected, am I to blame. Burnt, like moth to flame.
I'm here. Do you not see me. I'm here. Do you not hear the desperation in every word left unspoken. I'm here. Do you not feel my presence; worn and anxious and praying for you to call my name.
Complicate. Hesitate. Awaiting fate. But time won't wait. Thinking. Sinking. Rewinding with no blinking. But the clock wont stop ticking. Lost. Crossed. Dreams tossed.
