I put up with this shit every day,
Why does it have to be this way?
I start to walk over to you,
I want to talk to you but I don’t know what the hell to say,
You just look right through me like you want nothing to do with me,
What can I do to fit in this school?
Must I follow every rule that the popular crowd follow?
But when I try to involve myself I just blend in like a shadow cause' I follow them but I can't keep up,
Am I a ghost around here?
This place feels so haunted,
With all these crowds around me I feel like I'm being taunted,
I don't feel included,
I just feel deluded,
In this secluded space on my own,
They look right through me like I'm invisible,
All I need is a friend to rely on,
Just that one extra shoulder to cry on,
I need someone to dry my tears when I cry,
I need someone who actually cares when I try,
My parents say darling it’s all in your mind,
Go out there and show them that you're one of a kind,
But they don't realize that true friends are so frickin' hard to find,
Am I a ghost around here?
This place feels so haunted,
With all these crowds around me I feel like I'm being taunted,
I don't feel included,
I just feel deluded,
In this secluded space on my own,
They look right through me like I'm invisible,
But then... things looked up and so I thought it was time for change…
I saw two girls, no it was three,
They looked familiar and similar to me,
There was a doubt,
Figured it out,
I went over to them and completed the picture...
I was a ghost around here and yes, this place is haunted by the ghost that I once was,
There are crowds around me but I don't feel taunted cause' I'm part of one,
I now feel included,
I don't feel deluded and I'm in no secluded space anymore,
The ghost I was has turned invisible.
