Plastic

I wonder why
I don't know what you see?
Of course I care,
I won't pretend
It's just a thorn,
I'd said enough
Don't you know life turns me
Always wants me
I can hold the fight
I could try
But don't know what you hear
Cos in my heart, you are so clear
Just a thorn,
I'd said enough
Don't you know life turns me
Always wants me
I can hold the fight
On your stage
a show that you create
all by yourself
I am nowhere
You never notice
You are so sure
Don't you know life turns me
Always wants me
I can hold the fight
