The Observer

Always a lover

Always a friend

Looking for connection

Alone in my bed

This room feels so crowded

It's all in my head

Wish that you could see me

But you can't see past it

And I can't be someone new

You may not get me but I get you

And it's all the same

Circles drawn in the sky

Outwardly happy face

A shoulder to cry on

But I'm still alone

The mirror feels so far gone

If I mimic your expression

Will it bring me closer to you?

I look in your eyes

You look right on through

Am I doomed to be

The observer of what

I can't reach?

Always the old soul

Give me some advice

You say that I know you

That must feel nice

And If I blink twice

Will I disappear

When I can't see myself right

Who's there to bridge the distance?

When my thoughts come late night

What a lonely existence

And it's still the same

Circles drawn in the sky

Outward happy face

A shoulder to cry on

But I'm still alone

The mirror feels so far gone

If I mimic your expression

Will it bring me closer to you?

I look in your eyes

You look right on through

Am I doomed just to be

The observer of what

I can't reach?

I can't reach

I can't reach you

I can't reach

I can't reach you

I can't reach

I can't reach you

I can't reach

I can't reach you

And it's all the same

Circles drawn in the sky

Outwardly happy face

A shoulder to cry on

But I'm still alone

The mirror feels so far gone

If I mimic your expression

Will it bring me closer to you?

I look in your eyes

You look right on through

Am I doomed to be

The observer of what

I can't reach?
