I Stand in the Shadows
In the shadows I stand
   I want you to stand with me
I want you to see
   to understand
my pain, my fear, my world

Full of insecurities
   of wanting to be seen
To have someone notice me
   to see what I really am
inside...how I really am.

Looking all around me
   the light...it just slips right by
and forever I will stand
   apart from you
in the shadows.
The Meaning
This is just expressing how I wanted my family and friends to understand how I felt in early 1999, when school started and alot of things changed. I wasn't even sure I understood how I felt but it was like standing in shadows and watching everyone else around me having fun or being happy and me wishing I could be happy, confident and normal.
