I
am a question to the world
Not an answer to be heard
Or a
moment that's held in your arms
And what do you think you'd ever
say?
I won't listen anyway
You don't know me
And I'll never
be what you want me to be
The Hylian looked out into the field. It was just him now. There were no other people that looked like him, just him. Blue, Red, Vio…all of them have left. Sadness had filled Green. With the others, he was invisible. He was just another Link. He was just so…normal. He was the original…but no one liked him. The whole world, game and real, never seemed to care. He always tried to talk out, but they always shut him out. He was just not…different enough for them. He was hot headed like Blue; he wasn't serious like Vio, not cute-ish like Red, not leader like Lyn, or shy like Pink. And he was defiantly not as romantic like Yellow, or threatening like Shadow. He was just…there. He gave up on being able to stick out. He never listened to anyone anymore. No one knew him anymore, not even the other Links. Green had always been himself; he never wanted to be what others thought he should be.
And
what do you think you'd understand?
I'm a boy, no, I'm a man
You
can't take me and throw me away
And how can you learn what's never
shown?
Yeah, you stand here on your own
They don't know
me
Cause I'm not here
Again, no one understood him, and he didn't care anymore. He was just a young boy…although he was more of a man then the other Links. He felt like he was a toy, having fun with whoever played with him. Then when the other Links came, he was thrown away. They couldn't do that to him though, he was a real person! He wasn't just some old toy! He never thought anyone would understand. I mean, who would? No one had gone through what he had. He was invisible…no one could see him…If no one could see him, no one could know what he really was.
And
I want a moment to be real
Wanna touch things I don't feel
Wanna
hold on and feel I belong
And how can the world want me to
change?
They're the ones that stay the same
They don't know
me
Cause I'm not here
Green felt like a nobody. But he still wanted to go and do what he needed to do. Deep inside he wanted to let people know he wasn't invisible. He was still there, He was still alive. He wanted to fit in. He truly did. But, he promised to never change. He couldn't change just because the world wanted him to change. He was different then the others anyway. The others were all the same. The world was the ones being the same. He was still invisible, so no one would ever know who he was. He wasn't there.
And
you see the things they never see
All you wanted I could be
Now
you know me and I'm not afraid
And I want to tell you who I am
Can
you help me be a man?
They can't break me
As long as I know who
I am
Green
felt a tap on his shoulder and he turned to see who it was.
Surprisingly, it was Lyn. She smiled at Green. She was the only one
who seemed to care about him anymore. She saw when he left the room,
or if he felt sad or upset. She saw what everyone else couldn't
see. Green wasn't afraid of her. She knew him well, and he was glad
at least someone knew he existed. Green told her everything.
"What's
wrong Green?" asked Lyn. Green looked at her with sad eyes. She was
the only one…but she made sure Green knew who he was. He was
Link…the original Link out of all the Links. And

Lyn sat next to Green, waiting for an answer. Green didn't know what to say. He hadn't told her what he truly thought about the Links. But he couldn't. She was a Link herself. She was his feminineside. He couldn't tell her that he wanted to be the only Link again. He cared about her and the others too much. Green soon looked Lyn straight in the eyes.
"They
can't see me." He answered finally. Lyn did not say a word. She
understood all the other Links got more attention than Green, and
frankly, she didn't like it herself. They
can't tell me who to be
Cause I'm not what they see
Yeah, the
world is still sleepin'
While I keep on dreamin' for me
And
their words are just whispers and lies
That I'll never believe
The
two were silent. Just thinking to themselves. He wished this was all
a dream. He knew it wasn't true though. It was no dream. It was
never a dream. He kept dreaming though, that one day, they could see
him. He kept wishing that he would soon never be invisible again. He
always heard whispers from people though, when he walked around. They
always whispered, asking, "Who was that kid?" "Didn't they
saw him earlier?" Or, "Shouldn't he be with the others that
look like him?" Green had ignored them though. He never believed he
had to be like the other Links. He was his own person. And
I want a moment to be real
Wanna touch things I don't feel

change?
They're the ones that stay the same
I'm the one
now
'Cause I'm still here
Lyn hugged Green. She knew he was troubled by something. She knew people didn't like him for being the original Link. He belonged in Hyrule though. The other Links didn't. No one had that drilled in their heads though. To them, he was just another plain, green Link. Green soon moved so he could see Lyn clearly. Both looked at each other, hoping the other one had something to say. Then Green opened his mouth and said something that Lyn didn't expect.
I'm
the one now
Cause I'm still here
I'm still here
I'm still
here
"I'm still here"
