Lyric

Playing a Supporting Role

Tera Kira

Before I knew it, I was under an illusion

My grasp on reality is still a confusion

My standing point, I still can’t see

I’m just playing a supporting role

That’s the version of "me."

I know I can never be the protagonist

I’ve realized that long ago

But still, I’m expressing myself with all I’ve got

Even if no one looks my way

I’m making my appeal, here in this spot

"I am right here," I say

Trying so hard to tell you, in my own way

With a trembling voice, I fight the day

But it’s drowned out by the noise of the crowd

And it feels like it’ll never reach you, no matter how loud

But even so, I’ll keep up

This "bad struggle" a little longer

Adding on to the things I lack

A puzzle made of patches, with no way back

To tell you how I truly feel

I have too few pieces to make it real

It’s still incomplete, and that’s the deal

I know it won't even remain in your memory

I know that well

But I still haven't given up, not completely

From a place where I won’t be noticed

I’m looking up at you

Under an endless cloudy sky

And the rain that falls from time to time

I feel crushed and beaten down

But these feelings I’ve locked inside

Will stay here forever, with nowhere to hide

Maybe it’s okay

If I’m never noticed at all

Scribbling it down, lining up the days

In this life of mine, what should I say next?

What stories should I put on the page?

Layering them on, everywhere

Until they turn into a mess, beyond repair

The words that almost vanished away

Have lost their place, with nothing to say

Unable to be spit out, they stay

Sinking deep into my chest

Melting into my heart to rest

Deeper, and deeper

To the very bottom

They’ve sunk down, and now they’re gone
