I gotta ask why Where did I make the mistake Was it something I said Am I just not the right kind of person Why did I have to be the one out I don't understand Why don't you notice me? Did you not see me screaming? I was always waiting Fate said no, And I said so? Where does that leave me? You could never really be happy to see me It was all a lie that I never saw The vortex dragged me blindly As you sat there never willing to admit That I was a friend Misguided by a magnetic compass Alone in the dark because the hand That reached out never felt The warmth as it didnt exist...Figure this one out.
