The nervousness kicks in and my eyes settle on you again
But you're looking away, it's the same old story, same old day
'Cause I know I never stood a chance but did that ever stop me?
I don't know but I'm just hoping that one day you'll see me for who I am
A girl who watched, a girl who talked, a girl who wanted you every waking moment
But you never noticed her too

As the pain subsides, I'm left wondering why
You lust after a girl who broke you a thousand times
I wonder why you can't smile
When you've caught yourself up on a dream so impossible
And I'm left, stuck right in the same situation as you
No matter how much I hope, you won't look at me the same

Blood is dripping from my lips and your mouth is quivering
You didn't know a thing, it wasn't your fault
The pain is kicking in again, I thought it left long ago
But this isn't your fault, it's something else
And it's easier to blame you cause this hurts so much
It feels so right, why can't you turn this way?

The nervousness kicks in and my eyes settle on you again
But you're looking away, it's the same old story, same old day
'Cause I know I never stood a chance but did that ever stop me?
I don't know but I'm just hoping that one day you'll see me for who I am
A girl who watched, a girl who talked, a girl who wanted you every waking moment
But you never noticed her too

If one day, you decide to look at me instead of her
I do hope it's going to be for the right reasons
I promised myself I'd try my best to protect you and me
I think I'd still love you with your hands tight around my neck
I still miss you even if you are out to get me to meet my end
But how can I miss you, how can I love you, if I don't even know you yet?
