i like it when you look at me
except
i just don't think
you really look at me
maybe it's because
i'm not the one you wanted to see
or maybe it's because
i'm looking for
an unspoken apology
i'm really happy
i swear i'm happy
i smile 'til my
face screams
and everyone asks,
"how are you, addie?"
i like it when you think about me
except
i just don't think
you really think about me
maybe it's because
you don't even know me
or maybe it's because
you see right through me
i'm really okay
i swear i'm okay
i shrug my shoulders
and i sigh all day
and nobody ever asks
"are you sure you're okay?"
