Invisible
Sometimes I wonder just what it would take
to get you to look at me like you look at her
I don't think I'll ever be good enough for you
and so I'm always left to wonder
Every time you smile my heart skips a beat
and my face turns bright red
but the second you get near my tongue ties in knots
and you walk away leaving things left unsaid
Sometimes I want to ask you
exactly what you see
but I'm afraid that everything you see in her
won't be what you see in me
You'll tell me that she's beautiful
and she's the reason for your smile
I want to tell you that she never sees it
and its been that way all the while
I'm scared to put it all out there
for fear you don't feel the same
I want to stop the butterflies that fill my stomach
From just the simple sound of hearing your name
I'm sick and tired of being left in the cold
I hate wondering but I don't want to know
I'm sick of holding on when there's nothing to hold on to
but it would kill me to let go
So when you read this, maybe you'll answer
and maybe then you can tell me what you see
every time you look at her
are you really seeing me?
Am I somewhere in your heart
even if it is deep down inside
is that smile lighting your face for me
the one you always try to hide?
I'd love to think all of that is true
but for me it is unimaginable
but a girl can dream and hope
that maybe she isn't that invisible
