You walk right past me and don't know my face
even though your standing in my work place,
you go and hug my school friend
and don't even acknowledge me, does it end?
I feel like my heart is being ripped right out
I want you to look at me, but you don't hear me shout!
A year has passed since your eyes really met mine
I remember when they would meet mine how they would shine,
I stopped destroying myself a year ago
how can you not know?
how can you tell me I'm lying
if you looked in my eyes there would be no denying,
you say you love me
but I doubt that can be,
when you look at me, you don't even see
this past year hasn't been easy,
but I can stand here today and say I'm clean
no more white, yellow, or green,
all I want is for you to care
for you to be there,
I've tried to show you who I can be
but you can't see me,
I'm not perfect
but who really is?
You look at me, and yet you are blind
too busy with your selfish mind,
I don't want to hurt anymore
only one thing I know for sure,
if I can let go of drugs because of their harm to my well-being
I can let go of you, I'm tired of screaming,
I've made it this far without you
I have my friends who love me and believe in me too,
you'll regret it one day, not being able to see
but I am proud to say that I am free.
