I sit here waiting for you to acknowledge me with a greeting or a simple smile

These things I once took for granted now go a long way with me

They can make it all worth while



I hope you'll listen to what I have to say

You're so far away now

Everything turns into a game

You're so far away even though you're right here next to me

I keep hoping that you'll let me in



I've got this sick feeling in my gut that's been lingering for weeks

From the things that you have and have not said

Please don't turn away something I find important to me

Should I roll over and play dead?
