I don't want to be like everyone else, I want to be me. I won't walk with all of you on the ground because I can fly. -My own quote

You look at me
But you don't really see
Why can't you
I know but I wish I didn't
It's because you're looking through me
You're looking at her
Pointless endless love
She looks right through you
No one is happy
We're all looking the wrong way
Wish on a shooting star
But it's too confused
The star can't really help us
No one can help us

The author's comments:
I was thinking about how if we all got the person we thought we wanted, it just wouldn't work. Not everyone wants someone that wants them back. You like a guy but that guy likes another girl and that girl likes yet another guy.
