i love u to the moon n back

ghost

Footsteps, so heavy
against the wet ground.
Hold me tight
before I fall with the leaves....
No one is here,
so I'll just keep walking.
Let my steps be drowned by you.

Quiet every time I get to walk alone.
It's better than being with someone
and have the silence scream so loud.
Scary to think this is my life.
Maybe if I just tried...
try to at least pull myself towards you....

No one seems to know I'm here
every time I'm gone.
It's like that I am a ghost
when I'm right next to you.
Yet even Casper wouldn't even dare
to keep hiding.
Is this what I have become?
An alienated ghost?

You're thinking I know nothing,
but I actually know everything.
I'm not trying to haunt,
but what else should I do besides wonder
if you even know me or like me?
Maybe if you would try
to keep me from getting dry
and make my day,

I'd at least mean it when I say "I'm fine."

An alien... alone.
A ghost that everybody sees through.
And if I ever come out of it,
you'll only get scared.

Remember when there were times
you really wanted to get to know me?
Now all you ever do
is ignore when I come....

Even though I try to talk
to everybody,
there'll always be those
who makes me wish I could disappear.

Walk back into my house,
even more alone now.
Maybe school was pretty fun.
Maybe I actually laughed.
Maybe I had the time of my life
with people that I truly do care about...

but what does that really mean
when I'm really just a ghost to you?
