Lyrics

Verse 1)
The bell rings like an alarm I never set
Walking down the hallway, eyes on the floor, avoiding every net
Of conversations I don’t know how to join
A different currency, and I’m the wrong kind of coin.
Locker 402 is just a metal box of doubt
While everyone’s screaming, I’m just trying to find the way out.
(Chorus)
And I’m a ghost in a room full of noise
A glitch in the system, one of the lost girls and boys
The posters on the wall say "Reach for the sun"
But I’m just looking for a corner where I don’t have to run.
Yeah, the desk feels too small and the ceiling’s too high
In a world built for groups, I’m just passing by.
(Verse 2)
Lunchtime is a minefield of where to take a seat
A thousand plastic chairs and nowhere for my feet
To feel like they’re grounded, to feel like they’re home
Surrounded by hundreds, yet completely alone.
They’re reciting the answers, they’re playing the part
But there’s no textbook chapter for the weight on my heart.
(Bridge)
Maybe the square peg isn’t what’s wrong
Maybe the round hole was just the wrong song
But until the clock hits three and I can finally breathe
I’m just wearing a mask that I’m dying to leave.
(Chorus)
'Cause I’m a ghost in a room full of noise
A glitch in the system, one of the lost girls and boys
The posters on the wall say "Reach for the sun"
But I’m just looking for a corner where I don’t have to run.
Yeah, the desk feels too small and the ceiling’s too high
In a world built for groups, I’m just passing by.
(Outro)
Yeah, I’m just passing by.
Wait for the bell.
Wait for the light.
Just trying to make it through the day... to get to the night.
