It must be so easy for you
To brush past in the hall
Keep your eyes straight forward
Like I never knew you at all

I bet not once did it cross your mind
The thought my pain might last
You were wrapped in selfish problems
Trying to escape the past

Now take a look where we are
Two strangers living side-by-side
Maybe it wouldn't be so bad
If our feelings had been rectified

I despise your false air of confidence
Your proud eyes won't even look my way
I'm the only one who sees you for what you really are
Everyone else sees the part you play
