I've been waiting in your shadows
For so long that I can't remember
The last time you spoke to me
Or if we'd even met before
*Do you hate me now that
I've grown strong without you?
Or am I to you a frog beneath your shoe?*
I've spent so much time here
Grovelling over your ways
Trying to make these habits stay
That I'm not sure when I last saw you
*I tried to say hello to you once
A squeak came out and you walked past
Since then I've been silent and still*
I've sat here quietly by my self
Wondering when someone will notice
That I've left the room
I'm not sure you ever knew I was there.
