Verse 1:
I hear the clock keep ticking, but I don't hear your voice. The room is getting colder and silence is my choice. I've got a thousand feelings that I don't know how to say, so I keep them all inside me and pretend I'm okay.
Pre-chorus:
Everybody somewhere, everybody's got someone, and I'm staring at my ceiling wondering where I went wrong
Chorus:
I'm lonely in a crowded room, i'm drowning underneath the moon. Smiling like there's nothing wrong while I fall apart when everyone's gone. I wish somebody saw me, not just the person I pretend to be, because the hardest thing I've ever known is feeling lonely when I'm not alone
Verse 2:
I scroll through old conversations, reading words from yesterday, wondering if you meant them or if you just walked away. I miss the little moments, the ones I took for granted then, now I'm holding on to memories I can't go back and live again
Pre-chorus:
Maybe I'm too quiet, maybe I care too much, maybe I'm just waiting for someone to reach out and touch, not my skin but my heart, the part nobody knows, the part that's been hurting long before it ever showed
Chorus:
I'm lonely in a crowded room, i'm drowning underneath the moon. Smiling like there's nothing wrong while I fall apart when everyone's gone. I wish somebody saw me, not just the person I pretend to be, because the hardest thing I've ever known is feeling lonely when I'm not alone
Bridge:
If I disappeared from the conversation, would anybody notice the space? Would anybody wonder why they hadn't seen my face? I don't need someone to fix me, I just need someone to stay, someone who can sit beside me when I don't have words to say
Chorus:
I'm lonely in a crowded room, i'm drowning underneath the moon. Smiling like there's nothing wrong while I fall apart when everyone's gone. I wish somebody saw me, not just the person I pretend to be, because the hardest thing I've ever known is feeling lonely when I'm not alone
Outro:
So I'll leave the light on, even if nobody comes, maybe someday someone will find me in the quietest room
