I Just Want...

I don't want to hit it big,
I just want to be seen.

I just want to be known,
Not on the big screen.

I don't want to be famous,
I just want to be acknowledged.

I just want to be loved,
Not just a bird that's fledged.

I don't want to be invisible,
I just want to be seen.

I just want to be friends,
Not on the big screen.

I don't want to be popular,
I just want to be acknowledged.

I just want to get smiles,
Not just a bird that's fledged.

I'm being pegged down
By many, many things.

Lies, secrets,
People, things.

I'm being pegged up,
By many, many things.

Lies, secrets,
People, things.

I don't want anything.

I just want to be invisible,
my outlines barely seen.

I don't want anything.

I just want to be me.
