Watching snow fall, people keep flaking 
It's aggravating, explaining I'm appalled 
People don't call, nowadays we just txt 
It's easier to disconnect than get involved 
I'm somewhat distraught, watching what I say 
Rubbing you the wrong way, pretending to brush it off 
I've lost my sense of self, finding fast 
Crossing your mind doesn't mean we crossed paths 
Asking for help, you can't seem to embrace it 
It's the only time we have a conversation 
Blowing smoke... I'm disillusioned 
When it's drawn out, I draw my own conclusions 
I push people away... they're cancerous 
I call digits then they ask "who is this?" 
It's hard to commit, since I'm treated poorly 
You want the attention but choose to ignore me 
Surely I'll watch myself drown in nerve 
Asking if what they want is what I deserve 
Constant worry... trying to find words to convey 
If you don't stay, hey... I expect to get hurt 
That's worse than standing my ground 
I find in my absence, people don't stick around 
Sounds alienating, loneliness and dating 
Never making first moves... I'm always hesitating 
Saying to myself, "I'm gonna be alright" 
Agoraphobia's why I stay home all night 
I confront my demons but it's inadvertent 
Seeking validation and words of encouragement 
But I'm insecure, lacking confidence 
Cam said its hard to build up a trust on broken promises 
So I'm out chasing ghosts 
Somewhat torn between self loathe and self growth 
I've ever been in love, maybe once or twice 
Been told too many times, "you're too nice" 
Whatever... I guess that's the way it goes 
I'd rather be in a relationship than be alone 
Despite life's comprised of compromises 
I'm vibrant but people think I'm awkward and quiet 
Relationships are like my job 
I'll meet you halfway but forget to calculate the mileage 
Never go the distance, it ain't worth it 
We hide our feelings... pretending we're assertive 
Now I'm suddenly certain 
Opposites attract but the fact is you're still the same person 
I'm happy inside... less happy on dates 
I either persevere or perseverate 
I hate when people don't reciprocate
That's what separates you taking the time from the time that you take 
I make the effort, really it's coerced 
We're all shallow but completely immersed, in who we are and what we envision 
I'm not afraid to die, my whole life I've been non-existent 
Staring at the wall, knowing all too well 
That the reason you don't like me is cus' I hate myself 
I'm not afraid to die... I hope 
I almost gave up, giving up your ghost
