I’m in the spotlight

All eyes are on me

but suddenly it's getting very hard to breathe

I fantasized about singing and dancing on stage

but when I got on, all of that went away

now here I am alone in this play

silently hoping to get pulled off this stage

I've always loved the concept of playing in a

theater

but my fear of eyes couldn’t get much meaner

trying to get in rhythm with the music 

yet i feel like i'm staggering around being stupid

Dancing through the night

Trying to figure out what’s right

Stumbling into the darkness

Like a horse without a harness

My lungs once again begin to close

I knew I had to say goodbye to all my hopes

Slowly I watch as the darkness surrounds me

Then I suddenly begin to think

maybe it just wasn’t meant to be me
