Ghost in the crowd

GHOST IN A CROWD

Intro — distorted whisper

Look at all these people...

So why am I—

SO FUCKING ALONE?

Verse

A world full of voices,

A room full of names,

But nobody sees me

And nobody stays.

I stand in the crowd,

Still outside looking in.

Every door that I knock on

Closes again.

My head is a storm,

My thoughts start to blur—

They don't like you.

They don't want you.

You're nothing to them.

Pre-Chorus — building

So I reach for someone—

But nobody reaches back.

CHORUS — HEAVY / SCREAMED

I'M A GHOST IN A CROWD!

Surrounded by people—

STILL NOT FOUND!

This loneliness lives in me,

A demon underneath my skin!

I DON'T WANT EVERYBODY—

I JUST WANT ONE!

One soul brave enough

To reach inside the dark...

AND NOT RUN!

Verse 2

They judge the silence,

But never ask why.

They see me standing there

And still walk by.

I tried to belong,

I tried to fit in,

But somehow I'm always

The space in between.

And I'm angry—

Not because I hate you.

I'm angry because...

YOU NEVER EVEN TRIED TO KNOW ME.

BREAKDOWN — slow, crushing

My mind is a prison.

My loneliness has a face.

It follows me home.

It sleeps beside me.

It whispers—

"NO ONE IS COMING."

BRIDGE — emotional / desperate

But if you're out there...

Please—

Don't fix me.

Don't save me.

Just...

UNDERSTAND ME.

Reach through the darkness

Inside of my mind.

Take my hand—

And don't leave me behind.

Because I don't need a world

To suddenly care...

I JUST NEED ONE PERSON

TO KNOW THAT I'M HERE.

FINAL CHORUS — explosive

I'M A GHOST IN A CROWD!

Surrounded by people—

STILL NOT FOUND!

This loneliness haunts me,

It screams my name—

I DON'T WANT TO HATE THIS WORLD!

I JUST DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE AGAIN!

OUTRO — fading whisper

Maybe someday...

Someone will reach inside the dark.

Maybe someday...

I'll finally feel wanted.

But until then—

I'm surrounded...

By everyone.

And still...

So fucking alone.
