I feel empty
I'm self aware
Without a self
Like static noise
Instead of heart beats
It's like when a little girl
Is told for the first time
That you can hear the ocean singing
From inside a sand-coated conch shell
But when she presses it to her ear
It's just a pale echo inside
Not a melodic ocean heartbeat
Just an empty ringing
I suppose that's what people think of me
They expect i'll be a sweet song
Only to be let down
Because I'm just background noise
