Throwaway

Here I stand
Emotionless
Inside I scream in all directions
All I want
Nothing less
Is a bit of your attention

Walk around this stage
Like a mime trapped in a cage
They applaud but no one tries to help me out
Staring at me
Turn a blind eye to the pain
Leave behind my hope for change
Right here and now

I am just a throwaway
A plastic bag that's drifting through the wind
Never thought that you would go away
Our house of cards one blow from caving in

I don't think that I should be
So ashamed for asking
It's the least that you could do

Walk around this stage
Like a mime trapped in a cage
They applaud but no one tries to help me out
Staring at me
Turn a blind eye to the pain
Leave behind my hope for change
Right here and now

I would go all in
But I'm all out
Where to begin?
It's all so loud
You're killing me
I'm blacking out
On white lights zeroing in on me

Don't look at me
You just can't see

Walk around this stage
Like a mime trapped in a cage
They applaud but no one tries to help me out
Staring at me
Turn a blind eye to the pain
Leave behind my hope for change
Right here and now

I don't think that I should be
So ashamed for asking
It's the least that you could do
