background noise

I'm crying out
Can you hear me?
Of course not
A small noise no one can hear
The one they hear but ignore
I'm a background character
That no one knows
That song lyric no one understands
A bee that doesn't buzz
Hear me please
Notice that I'm there
I've tried again and again
But you can't hear me
I'm the background noise to your background noise
Slowly I'll fade out completely
I'm fighting to stay noticed
But at this rate
I'll be gone forever
And you won't even miss me.
