I
I post a message
Give you an opening
To say a thing
I wait
Wait for excitement
Hope for connection
But quiet reigns
Always seem
To fall into this trap
Misbelieving silence is a slap
Just living out my dream and wanting you to see
But no matter 'cuz you never notice
Why do I feel the need for validation to achieve
It's all for nothing 'cuz you never notice
I've got confidence I know but I feel the need to show
It's no difference 'cuz you never notice
Took a look inside of me and I finally came to see
I've found myself 'cuz you never notice
Misplaced
Need for cheering
From a missing following
A false belief
Oh time
Has taught me one thing
My motivation
Is within me
Always seem
To fall into this trap
Misbelieving silence is a slap
Just living out my dream and wanting you to see
But no matter 'cuz you never notice
Why do I feel the need for validation to achieve
It's all for nothing 'cuz you never notice
I've got confidence I know but I feel the need to show
It's no difference 'cuz you never notice
Took a look inside of me and I finally came to see
I've found myself 'cuz you never notice
Disengage to find out who puts in the effort
Real relationships are what's fulfilling
But most of all don't forget all that truly matters
Is how you feel about the goals you've reached
Just living out my dream and wanting you to see
But no matter 'cuz you never notice
Why do I feel the need for validation to achieve
It's all for nothing 'cuz you never notice
I've got confidence I know but I feel the need to show
It's no difference 'cuz you never notice
Took a look inside of me and I finally came to see
I've found myself 'cuz you never notice
Just living out my dream and wanting you to see (you never notice)
But no matter 'cuz you never notice
Why do I feel the need for validation to achieve (you never notice)
It's all for nothing 'cuz you never notice
I've got confidence I know but I feel the need to show (you never notice)
It's no difference 'cuz you never notice
Took a look inside of me and I finally came to see (you never notice)
I've found myself 'cuz you never notice
You never notice
You never notice
You never notice
You never notice
You never notice
You never notice
