A Wake

I've been waiting for a long time
For what exactly I couldnt say
With bated breath and tense and anxious posture
I waste away the day

I need nothing from nobody
I loudly say to see
If anybody turns around and notices
Little poor old me

I've been hanging by a bare thread
And I cant help but give it a pull
See it all unravel into an ugly mess
I guess I enjoy the show

I want everything from everybody
I whisper so you dont hear
If anybody knew how selfish I was
They wouldnt come near

Ding ding the dinner bell is ringing i
Can hear it through the thunder crash
But I'm content to hide out in the forest here
Away from all of that

Away from the face you wear when you walk
In through the front door
Tell me that you wish you could be proud of me
But not to worry bout it anymore
