The kid in the corner...

There's always that kid in the corner...
that kid that's alone...
that kid that pretends to want to be alone because he's that kid that was never really noticed...

Would you please say hello...
or maybe nod like you even see me...

Would you please make an excuse...
when you don't invite me out with the other kids...

Would you please pretend to care...
when you see me bent over, red-eyed, holding back tears

You might not care for me, but sometimes it's okay to pretend to...
I dress in grey, hoping i'll blend into the walls, giving you reason to not notice me...

Then i can say "Ah, my colors didn't stand out - that's why I'm so invisible"
