Am I disturbing you

While you’re waiting for your soulmate

I have a confession to make

I’m sorry

There’s been a change

Ready for my close up

I’ve been rejected by someone I wasn’t interested in

Couldn’t you just die

Cue the music

When we fall we get back up

Keep walking baby

I’m tucking these things back in the drawer

And going back to my real life

But I wanted you to know that I see you

Just the way you truly are

Maybe one day you’ll see me too

But it’s alright

Because I was never really interested in you
