May Not Be

sometimes when i'm lonely
i just laugh outloud
cuz i'm the only one, that understands
my heart has a yearning for love i cannot touch
no, no, no

so i sing a song that ain't existed
and you hear, the way i feel inside
nevermind the ones that have insisted
that they really, really know me,
when i don't even know myself

i may not be a shoulder you can cry on
i may not be a lot of things baby,
i'm just the one that stands beneath the shadows
without a single word to say

i live in the moment
takin the time to be what no one talks about,
because they can't see
the way all the changes are moving fast, not slow
and i am growing old

though i give the gift that keeps on giving
when i stand alone inside the crowd
sometimes life is hardly worth the living
and my vision gets so blurry
when everything comes falling down

i may not be a shoulder you can cry on
i may not be a lot of things baby,
i'm just the one that stands beneath the shadows
without a single word to say (x2)

and i may not be (may not, may not be)
i know i may not be (may not, may not be)
said i may not be (i said i may not be nowhere at all)
may not be a shoulder you can cry on
i may not be there for ya
i may not be around at all

i may not be (x3)
