no one looks at us anymore

no one can see that i'm not smiling

or that my eyes don't shine

my eyes don't shine anymore

so i started to smile

but no one could tell the difference

because it turns out

no one really cares

no one really pays attention to you

they're so focused on themselves

and what their bodies look like

that they won't look you in the eye

only if you're crying

will they realize that they need you

to stay.
