lyrics

I'm losing track of the days again
searching for something to say to them, something benign
I've been feeling so invisible lately
do they know I'm still here, do they hate me?
and I just looked at my phone again
desperately trying to hold it in, biting my tongue
'til it bleeds, I just need to be noticed
could you spare just a piece of a moment

3AM still no response
feel ashamed to even want
wondering where have you gone

and I'm dying just to know what you are thinking
but I know the consequences won't be minor if I ask
if I don't know then I can just keep on pretending that it's fine
if I inquire there's no way to take it back, another panic attack
another looming catastrophe I don't know how to act.
line my chest with bubble wrap to try and keep it intact
maybe I just need a little more time to redefine
but do you want it like I do?
