i was never important.

the world never praised me, i never won any awards or any accolades. i floated along... in key, in rhythm, on pitch.

nobody noticed, i didn't expect them to.

but i thought you were different. i thought you wanted me to rise above—i thought you believed in me to sing stronger and i thought you watched me with eyes sparkling. i was wrong, though. i was very wrong.

i was never important.

especially not to you.
