Lost and forgotten

I drift in and out of people's lives

Like a feather in the breeze

You never really know I'm there

Until I start to leave

I don't make my connections deep

Because I'm scared of what I'll lose

I don't try to compete with anyone else

And I'll never make you choose

I prefer to stick to the sidelines

Because the spotlight hurts my eyes

I hide behind a constant smile

So, you won't know it's a disguise

People tend to forget

When I'm in a crowded room

I can disappear for days on an end

And I'm bound to do it soon

Don't worry if you notice I'm gone

I was never meant to stay

But what hurts it

I know you won't miss me long

I'll be forgotten in a day
