Sitting in a darkened corner
Watching all of you have fun
I know you all forgot me,
But I hate that I miss you

I really should have cared about you
But I couldn’t bring myself to do that
I should have gone to comfort you,
But I couldn’t tell you that lie

Living with my own regrets now
Why do I have to love it?
Conviction’s heavy in this room
Unnerving, I know; sad but true

I see all of you are laughing
You don’t even notice me
You don’t see me crying
Crying on the inside
You only see my anger

And that’s all I’ll ever let you see…
