Sidekick

What do I look like through
A strangers eyes
Why dont they look back
Do I cross their minds

If I tell you my story
Would you wanna hear me out
If I tell you all the things
That I never say out loud

Like the boy I love
Likes someone else
And my Best friends think I'm
Jealous of them

Well it's true
Wish I could be you
But they're all fireflies
And I'm just a streetlight
Don't say that we both shine the same
No we don't, well that's the thing

I'm a sidekick
I Don't really know whether
I'll ever be the
Main character
I'll take you down to the
Boy you love

Make sure you've got all that you want
I dont have a story worth telling
I hope you get yours
Don't worry about me

I will be here waiting for
The spotlight to find me
Blind me with your perfection

Staring at the crowd
With anxious eyes
While I'm backstage
Watching the fireflies

Why do they start to leave
Its my turn to speak
Won't they turn back to see
I too have a story

I want to scream in the middle of the room
And hear a call back from
Someone who could see

Who felt how I feel
Who felt I am real
For crying out loud
I just want to be seen

I'm a sidekick
I Don't really know whether
I'll ever be the
Main character

I'll take you down to the
Boy you love
Make sure you've got all that you want

I dont have a story worth telling I hope you get yours
Don't worry about me
I will be here waiting for
The spotlight to find me
Blind me with your perfection
