You are the reason I come to school every day 
You are the reason I have promised to stay 
But you can’t see that 
You still like my best friend 
And I act like I’m okay with it 
But to be honest, I’m jealous 
You stare at her and don’t even see me 
You cut me out of the picture completely 
You are giving me all the signs 
You just can’t say the right lines 
You give me half hugs and give her none 
Am I the one? 
I’m not sure 
My heart is pacing 
My lungs are racing 
The air I breath in can’t seem to make it past my mouth 
Maybe your feelings for me left with the birds and migrated south 
But I won’t give up 
I’m the one that has been there for you since day one 
And she has been there none 
Why can’t you see me? 
Am I invisible? 
Because others see me clearly 
Except for you obviously 
Maybe you’re just blind 
Or haven’t got the common sense in mind 
But I don’t care 
I still see you stare, 
At her or me? 
I can’t really see 
Because you’ve blind sighted me
