I see her walking by
Amongst the crowd she walks
Clutching her schoolbooks in her arms
The whole world glistens in her eyes
No one sees her in the bustling halls
No one notices her , no one at all
Every day , no one at all
Except me
Head down, I pass life by
A dark stranger in a world of light
Schoolbooks kept close to my chest
Shielding my mind from the loud universe
I'm just another blank canvas,
In this town of Van Goghs.
Take no heed of where my footsteps follow
I can't trust my own **** self
I'm about to pass her
My heart thumps
My blood pumps
I wish this would last forever
But yet it hurts
Because I can never have her
From the inside the feeling burns
But I still love her
Sinking further into this dark hole
Like the life's draining out of me
Whispers of screams circle my brain
I wish this was just a dream
It aches, oh how it kills me
I can never live a normal joyful life
The familiar emptiness within me whistles a frozen tune
Unloved. Unwanted.

I can never live a normal joyful life
The familiar emptiness within me whistles a frozen tune
Unloved. Unwanted.
