Do I Even Exist?

Who am I in your silence, buried deep in your mind?

Lost in the echoes, do I even still shine?

I’m just a shadow, fading away in your view

Tried to reason, tried to hold on to what's true

You move me under, dismiss every cry

But still I wonder, am I just a lie?

Every little thing I do, it’s falling on deaf ears

What’s the point of this pain, if nobody hears?

I need someone, to see me for who I am

To break this silence, to understand

Am I just a ghost in your story?

Or do I matter, in your glory?

Caught between nothing and feeling too real

Tell me, do I even exist, or just an illusion I conceal?

Stuck in the middle of hope and despair

Whether I’m here or gone, do you even care?

I try to stay strong, but it’s tearing me apart

Looking for someone to heal my heart

Lights flicker in the dark, beats in my chest

Hoping for a sign, a quiet protest

Every chord I play, every note I sing

Screams out a question, what do I mean?

Am I just a ghost in your story?

Or do I matter, in your glory?

Caught between nothing and feeling too real

Tell me, do I even exist, or just an illusion I conceal?

What am I to you? Do I have a place?

Or am I just forgotten, lost in space?

All I need is to be seen, to be known

Not just a whisper, but my truth shown
