The Quarterback

Sitting on the bleachers high

Watch the game just pass me by

I'm the star they say they cheer

But I don't feel it when you're near

Locker room it's filled with noise

But inside I got no voice

Buddy taps me that's a norm

But deep down I feel the storm

I wanna be cool I wanna be popular

But I'm lost in shadows can't see clear

They envy they wish to take my place

But I can't find a friendly face

Hallways filled with empty stares

Act so tough but no one cares

Got the looks the game the name

But they don't see inside my pain

Carrying the weight of fame

Winning trophies feels the same

Smiling wide but it's a mask

Is there more I dare to ask

I wanna be cool I wanna be popular

But I'm lost in shadows can't see clear

They envy they wish to take my place

But I can't find a friendly face

Carrying the weight of fame

Winning trophies feels the same

Smiling wide but it's a mask

Is there more I dare to ask

I wanna be cool I wanna be popular

But I'm lost in shadows can't see clear

They envy they wish to take my place

But I can't find a friendly face
