I want someone to need me
Or at least want me
To feel my presence
To turn to me for help
To cry on my shoulder
To ask to spend time with me
As much as I ask them
Because right now
I just feel like the unwanted friend
The one who no one really wants around
But politely puts up with
I'm the replaceable teammate
Who has useful skills
But my space could easily be filled
By a thousand other people
Everywhere I go
I am either unneeded
Unwanted, or replaceable
I am merely a spare person
Who people forgot
The moment I am beyond sight

But my space could easily be filled
By a thousand other people
Everywhere I go

I am merely a spare person
Who people forgot
The moment I am beyond sight
