Elucidating Questions

That would be such a lie

On my mind

Interloper

Such affection for nothing

It’s a part you portray so I had to know the real person

Desperately

Foolishly

There are shields I will never know

If I could will it

It can’t be chance if I force it

But possibility is terrifying

Waiting for something that may happen

I don’t know what I’m waiting for

That’s the problem

I don’t even know if it’s in my stars

If I could see you I’d tell you

All those nights I was alone and you were my only friend

I’d tell you all those moments I felt so low and you took my hand and helped me back up

I’d tell you of a homesick and scared young person reaching back for home and finding you

I’d tell you I thought you were a complete prat

But when you made fun of yourself I didn’t anymore

I’d tell you some of your lyrics I can’t listen to anymore because time has soured them

The meanings these things have for me now

I’m just the blurry person in the background

I don’t have any spark

I don’t burn bright like all the people that surround you

But I believe in you

I don’t know what that means

Because it’s not like you need believing in

You’re the Sun coming out

The days seem so colourless here

A dash of colour

I’m frustrated with myself for this

Ashamed

Who does this?

Me, apparently

I’m not your average person

That’s probably why I’m alone

But I firmly believe whatever you put forth next will be just as brilliant as before

You have this technical grasp of music that I could never

So caught up in its magic am I

I don’t bring anything

Background character in everyone’s stories

I just wanted to shine

Just a bit

For you
