Do you see me?
Do you care?
You talk about me like I’m not there!
Don’t get a word in when you’re around.
I bet you don't know what I’m about.
I will I will speak for myself
What you see isn’t all I am,
I need a place to stand.
I will I will speak for myself.
There’s so much your missing,
If you cared you'd listen.
You suffocate me.
You drown me out.
I’m tired of waiting without a doubt.
I feel I’m fading
IV flickered out.
My heart is screaming without a sound.
I will I will speak for myself,
What you see isn’t all I am,
I need a place to stand.
I Will I will speak for myself,
There’s so much your missing
If you cared you'd listen.
I’m not sorry for who I am.
Take it or leave it.
It’s my time to stand.
Throw it or keep it.
Just know that I don’t need to understand.
I won’t say it again,
I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, I will, caz I will I will speak for myself.
What you see isn’t all I am.
I need a place to stand,
Caz I will I will take a stand
There’s so much your missing
If you cared you’d listen
