Can't You See

By: Alicen Mae Esch

Why do I feel
Feel like I'm sinking
Can someone please
Please help me

Why do I see you
See you on your own
Maybe I can try
Try to help you

Can someone help me
Stop me from sinking lower
Will someone help them
'Cause they are on their own

Do they know
Know why they are alone
Can you hear them
Hear them scream

How can you ignore me
Ignore me when I scream
Can't you see I'm dying
You just look through me

Can someone help me
Stop me from sinking lower
Will someone help them
'Cause they are on their own

Can you see them now
They are falling down
Crimson drops
I'm crying now

Slowly you notice
And walk away from me
I cry out after you
Still you walk away

Can someone help me
Stop me from sinking lower
Will someone help them
'Cause they are on their own
