Distracted

Even when I'm happy, when I'm excited with my friends,
Even when I'm effervescent, I still feel like this is the end
Even when I'm distracted, with all the littlest things,
Even right at midnight when the doorbell rings
It's like I'm immune to emotions, immune to the feelings that surround,
Immune to all the drama that's caused by the people around
Even when I'm having the time of my life, partying till the rise of dawn,
Even when all the memories have disappeared, are long gone
It's like I can't erase you, you're following me everywhere,
Just the ghost of your memory, trails me here and there
I try to keep myself distracted, try so hard to forget,
I try so hard to laugh and smile, pretending we'd never met
But the truth still haunts me as I slowly realize that you were the one for me,
Every time I look at someone else, that it's you I'd like to believe
To say I miss you is an understatement, to say I care is low,
To say I'm obsessed is the very least, I just wish I had a chance to say hello
I try to keep myself distracted, try to mislead my feelings,
I just wish you'd be aware of the heart that you've been stealing
Every time I close my eyes, a picture of you is what I see,
A perfect frame with you in the middle, I just wish you'd think the same of me.
