[Intro] I’ve been walking through the quiet, trying not to make a sound Hoping maybe someone sees me, but no one’s ever around I keep holding all my questions in the corners of my chest Wondering if being me is something I should just forget [Verse 1] Why can’t I be myself when no one seems to care So I hide behind a mask like I’m not really there I keep waiting for a moment when somebody might see All the pieces that I’m carrying, the ones that make me me [Pre‑Chorus] But they only turn their heads when I’m breaking down inside Only when I’m close to giving up the fight I try to hide And I’m tired of being noticed only when I fall apart I just want someone to hold the softer pieces of my heart [Chorus] I feel abandoned in the shadows where I’m standing Reaching out for something real, but nothing ever lands in All I ever wanted was a love that wouldn’t bend All I ever needed was to feel it once again I’m still hoping someone sees me before I break and bend I just wanted to feel love again [Verse 2] I’ve been walking with the weight of words I never got to say Trying hard to keep my balance when the world pulls me away I’ve been stitching up the silence where connection used to be Trying not to lose the last small spark that’s left inside of me [Pre‑Chorus] And they only seem to notice when the tears begin to fall When I’m standing on the edge and I can barely stand at all But I’m more than just the moments when I’m breaking at the seams I’m the hope that keeps on glowing in the corners of my dreams [Chorus] I feel abandoned in the shadows where I’m standing Reaching out for something real, but nothing ever lands in All I ever wanted was a love that wouldn’t bend All I ever needed was to feel it once again I’m still hoping someone sees me before I break and bend I just wanted to feel love again [Bridge] Still there’s something in me whispering that I’m worth being found That someone out there might hear me even when I make no sound Maybe one day they’ll see through the mask I’ve worn so long And stay with me before I shatter, help me learn where I belong [Final Chorus] I feel abandoned in the shadows where I’m standing Reaching out for something real, but nothing ever lands in All I ever wanted was a love that wouldn’t bend All I ever needed was to feel it once again I’m still hoping someone sees me before I break and bend I just wanted to feel love again
