In reality, she doesn't matter to them
She's just another pretty face in the crowd
Nothing that makes them want to stick around
Poor darling, once she's out of sight
She's out of mind

One day
Those of us who found our way back
Survived
We'll look back on the days
When we were lost
And we'll wince at the realization
Of the time we wasted
Pushing away someone
Who could have been our future
And we will wince
At the days consumed
Trying to shrink
Into the disordered skeleton children
We became
Flashing fake smiles
And looking out at the world
With vacant eyes clouded by despair

You flooded me with false hope
And left me drowning in feelings
Thinking about how you and I
Could've been a we
With your lingering touches
You sparked lightning in my heart
And now it dances in my veins
Refusing to stop.
But you dont care that you are in my bloodstream
Because baby, I could light up the skies for you
And you wouldn't care to look.

— The End —
