thin air


You can always find me in the back Behind the people who love to talk They find it easy but for me it's tough I feel like something in me lacks Though I always end up choosing to be alone I want someone truer than my phone I may not learn to love being surrounded Yet still want someone inside my head And in the moments I want to disappear in thin air I hope that person will gladly be with me there
