Something happened today,
Strange in every way,
You up and left,
You’ve gone away,
Again today.
What did I say?
Why didn’t you stay?
Was it all pretend?
No beginning or end,
I should have known,
You weren’t my friend,
You weren’t anything then.
Who are you?
What did I do?
Will I ever find out?
What filled you with doubt?
Did you know all along,
What this is about?
Imaginary clout.
Close your eyes,
Ignore my cries.
So hard to know,
When you show,
What you want me to see,
Not what you hide,
With foolish pride.
Look away,
If you can't say.
You want me to care,
To get you there,
I am no one,
My vacant stare,
Never fully aware.
I’ll sing my song,
I’ll sing it loud and wrong.
I hope you find,
Someone more kind,
That strokes your ego,
And leads you blind,
I guess I’m not your kind.
Rewind?
Not this time.
