Trying to be a Someone

Folder: 
2001

I'm trying to be a someone

I want to be seen

And I'm ashamed to admit it

But it doesn't matter if it's not for me

I want to be admired

I want people to recognize my face

I'm tired being walked on

And always so ignored

I'd love to

Be a person you respect

But if that isn't the right solution

I can handle being feared

I tried

The route of being me

And I got nowhere

No one's friendship did I find

I'm dreaming

How great it would be

To smile

At someone

And have them smile back to me

I'm thinking

That it's be great

To have someone to talk to

And stay up chatting late

I'm saying

That people can be cold

And I've gotten that a lot

For companions I am praying

I'm loving

The thought of dating

Someone who doesn't judge my face

And I'll get a 10 plus rating

I'm wondering

What'd you say if I told you

That I'm scared

To lie about me

I'm hoping

That once they would let me in

I could show them

I'm not so bad

The way I really am
