-invisible-
I raise my hand to see a hand raise,
Waiting for a sweet greeting to...
Oh...
I see that sweet greeting isn't for me.
I just continue to walk with a smile, it was a mistake,
I'm so stupid, I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up.
It's such a shame that I must go unnoticed,
But that's how the world works, huh?
Even the people I once knew seem to ignore,
Of course, they have moved on.
I, as a person, am no longer needed,
They've got new friends to replace me.
As the whole world spins, I am left behind,
Unable to go forward and unable to go back.
Such a shame that I must go unnoticed,
I have a voice here too, right?
But even if I were visible, would I matter?
Would my words do anything to change?
So, for now, I'll watch that hand,
Wave to someone else.
