that girl (forgotten)

Have I told you about that girl? (forgotten)

She's sat in your class now for months. (forgotten)

You say you see her but you really don't. 

I don't think you get how she feels. (forgotten)

No one's cared and no one ever will. (forgotten)

It's eaten her up from the inside out.

Oh, you said "hi" a month ago? (forgotten)

What's her name then? (forgotten)

That's right, you don't know.

It hurts sitting here, She whispers

but no one hears her. 

It hurts to be alone, She whispers

but no one hears her.

I think I'll leave early, She whispers

and fades away on a noose

and it's too late to hear her.

But no one has and no one ever will.
