In The Background
You and I are entirely made up of awkward eye contact and mutual friends.No, wait, perhaps a bit more:
we're also ex-myspace friends who happend to attend to same high school football game every week.
and I believe this is all we'll ever be,
ever going to be,
ever will be,
ever shall be,
Whichever way you want to say it, there's no "us".
There never has been, and I'm beginning to doubt there ever will be.
I fear that I have always been and will always remain nothing more than an unessessary background character to your busy, friend-filled life.
Of course, with just a one-year age difference, you'd think that talking to you wouldn't be so much of a challenge.
Wrong.
Since I seem to lack basic self confidence,
Since you seem to be popular among your peers,
Since I seem too shy to try anything at all,
Since you don't seem to want to talk to me that badly,
Since I seem to be afraid to talk to handsome strangers,
Since you seem to have way more of a life then I ever will,
"We" could never, ever happen.
And I shall remain in the background.
