Notice Me

I give up. I've tired everything! But you just don't notice the real me. I tried acing smart but you though I was impersonating you…badly. I wanted to be able to listen to you speaking and actually understand you, because I'm not as dumb as you make me out to be. I'm actually pretty bright when it comes to mechanicals. But you can' see it. Maybe your high IQ stops you from seeing people for what they are. You just kept swatting me away, every time I'd burst into your lab proudly showing you whatever I'd just made you'd say 'Not now Otto' or 'Tell me when I'm not so busy Otto'. So when will you have time for me?

I wanted to be like you
I wanted everything
So I tried to be like you
And I got swept away

Why are you so cold? Pushing everyone away and locking yourself into your lab pushing your nose into a chemical or something. You need someone to show you what the outside world is like. What the sunshine on your fur feels's like and how the birds sing.

If you let me I could be that person.

I'd show you the truly important things in life. Let you taste ice cream on a sunny day or let you hear the hello's of people passing you on the street. You may be a brain box but you have so much to learn. You may be good a math's problems or biology or whatever you study in there but I'm scared. I'm scared that you will spend so much time in there you will forget what the world is like. I'm scared that you'll forget me. That's why I bust into your lab everyday. Just to make sure you're still holding on.

I didn't know that it was so cold
And you needed someone
to show you the way
So I took your hand and we figured out
That when the tide comes
I'd take you away

You need someone to keep on believing in you. Someone like me. I always believed in you, through thick and thin. Like one of those really cheesy romance films where everything would be perfect and they would skip of into the sunset. But life with you isn't perfect it's a one way battle. I fight hard to let you out, practically dragging you out but you pull on your arm making me fall over every time. And I'll start again. It's like one big jigsaw puzzle and the last few pieces are missing.

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares

I don't know how long I can carry on, trying desperately for you o even register I'm standing by your side at all times. I need your fluffy blue fur stoking against mine. I need your tail wrapped around mine…I need your lips touching mine. The only thing that keeps me going no matter what the circumstance is the fact I get to see you happy. You're happy in your lab and I only wish you would be happy with me. What is so important that you need to spend countless hours in your own company? Where is it that you hide from all of us? Is that what you're doing? Hiding?

I'm sinking slowly
So hurry hold me
Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone

Sometimes I get so scared I cry. I can't help it I just brake down and cry. It's your entire fault; if I didn't love you so much I'd hate you. That's what really keeps me believing in you. This one feeling makes every smile you send me like gold. I see in your eyes though, I see them beginning to cloud over. You're falling into the shadows and I'm terrified I can't save you. Please prove me wrong, fight the shadows. You mean far too much to me to loose you. I need your high IQ and your almost foreign language you say when you try to explain something.

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted
was somebody who cares

But after all I put myself through you barley realize I am alive. So I'll keep on trying to stop you but failing all the time. I know it annoys you and gets you wound up. But it's your own fault. Annoying you is the only way you acknowledge me. Because to you I am just some green monkey sitting in a chair or eating or whatever. But I want you to se me as Otto the mechanic of the hyper force.

Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone

I just want you to notice me.
