Can anybody hear me?

It’s like I don’t even exist, or at least that’s how I feel

Can anybody hear me? Do they know that I’m here?

Probably not, I’m fully dressed & I usually don’t make a lot of noise

Which doesn’t really resonate well with any of the boys

The girls are all fighting each other for the spotlight

Too consumed in their own attempts to be Ms right.

I stayed in my own lane to avoid those troubles,

But somehow trouble found me.. life’s troubles I mean.

I was taught, very few could be trusted

So I boxed myself into a corner, where I felt protected

Until it got cold & lonely; suffocated by my shelter

No one can see in me here, they can't hear my cries

But I’m here & I promise I’m alive.

Can you hear me?
