My past is dark
But not dark enough
For people to pretend to care like they do for everyone else

When one person reaches for my light they're burned before the get too close

At the end of the day I'm just the crummy leftovers
The ones you settle for because there is nothing else

All this time trying to be like everyone else
Envying the ones who can be outgoing in any crowd

For me to be myself I need to know
Who you are inside and out
I need to be comfortable

When people say break out of your shell it's hard because every time I crack the walls something happens and I tape it up and one day all that will be left it tape and getting out simply won't be an option anymore

People say if they knew you like i did
But that's the point
They don't want to try
And I don't want to let them

For me, you're either to stupid to leave or to stuck to move
