Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro:]
[Soft, melancholic piano and strings, setting a reflective mood.]
[Verse 1:]
In a room full of faces, I'm just one,
But your eyes find mine, and the damage is done,
Words like daggers, sharp and clear,
Why did you choose me, when others are near?
[Pre-Chorus:]
I'm standing here, feeling so small,
In the shadow of your harsh call,
Every slight, every snide,
Feels like a battle, nowhere to hide.
[Chorus:]
Why did you single out me?
When there are others to choose from, you see,
I'm not the only one here,
But you make it so clear,
Why did you single out me?
Your target, your pain to set free,
In this crowd, I disappear,
Yet you make me feel I'm the one to fear.
[Instrumental Break:]
[Guitar strumming lightly, transitioning into the next verse.]
[Verse 2:]
I walk on eggshells, afraid to speak,
Your gaze so piercing, makes me weak,
Laughter around, but none is mine,
Why did you make me your cross to define?
[Pre-Chorus:]
Every glance, every grin,
Feels like a knife beneath the skin,
I'm just a face in the crowd,
Yet your scorn is always loud.
[Chorus:]
Why did you single out me?
When there are others to choose from, you see,
I'm not the only one here,
But you make it so clear,
Why did you single out me?
Your target, your pain to set free,
In this crowd, I disappear,
Yet you make me feel I'm the one to fear.
[Instrumental Bridge:]
[Intense and emotive instrumental, building up tension.]
[Bridge:Continued]
Did I remind you of someone you knew?
Or was I just convenient to subdue?
In your game of power and might,
Why am I always the one you fight?
[Chorus:]
Why did you single out me?
When there are others to choose from, you see,
I'm not the only one here,
But you make it so clear,
Why did you single out me?
Your target, your pain to set free,
In this crowd, I disappear,
Yet you make me feel I'm the one to fear.
[Instrumental Outro:]
[Soft, reflective piano, fading out slowly, symbolizing the lingering question and unresolved pain.]
[Outro:]
In the quiet, I search for peace,
Trying to find my own release,
Why did you single out me?
When there were others, why couldn't you see?
I'll rise above, find my way,
But this question will haunt me every day.
