In the shadows I sit,
Doing my best.

Time lost,
Love forgotten.

Yet all you do is hate me,
All you do is walk past me.

Friends I make,
People I help.

It all means nothing,
It all matters not.

Sword through my heart,
Tears stinging cheeks.

All I do is try,
All I do is fail.

I'm worthless to you,
Worthless to all.

Running from freedom,
Working to death.

Why didn't I see it?
Why didn't you care?

No better then dirt,
I deserve death.

But still I live,
Still I help.

Striving to please,
Working so no one else has to.

But why?
