Lyrics

don't you see me here

sitting on the back porch, the party's inside
they don't mean anything they say
why was I invited, I think to myself
it seems I'm just in the way
they'll never notice I left the room
they never noticed me there
maybe later they'll see
but why should I even care

don't you see me here
I'm here just for you
don't you see me, I'm calling your name

why should I leave this loneliness
just to fill up a room
I'm like a puppet tangled up in string
performing, but for whom
oh why is it so hard to forget all I know
and clear my head with clean air
so much trouble I see
and why do I even care

chorus

just pick me up and fly me through the air
I wouldn't care
I mean it, I wouldn't care

they'll never notice we left the room
they never noticed us there
maybe later they'll see
but why should we even care

chorus
