SO WISE SO SURE
GIVE FREE ADVICE
RIGHTOUS AND PURE
LOOK AT ME NOW
A CLOWN IN MY PLACE
TELL A BAD JOKE
OR FALL ON MY FACE
LOOK AT ME NOW
DON’T GO AWAY
A TRAGIDY’S BEGINNING
A 3 HANKY PLAY
LOOK AT ME NOW
A PERFORMANCE IS ON
BUT WHAT WILL OCCUR
ONCE THE AUDIENCE IS GONE
LOOK AT ME NOW
A NEW SEASON WILL START
THIS TIME I PROMICE
TO GIVE YOU ALL A SMALL PART
LOOK AT ME NOW
A SPOTLIGHT I SEEK
DOWN IN THE VALLEY
OR UP ON THE PEAK
LOOK AT ME NOW
DON’T LOOK AWAY
I’LL CEASE TO EXIST
IF NO ONE WILL STAY
LOOK AT ME NOW,
ATTENDANCE IS DOWN
THE AUDIENCE IS BORED
AND STARTING TO FROWN
LOOK AT ME NOW
THE LIGHTS HAVE GONE DARK
EVERYONE HAS LEFT
THE SILENCE IS STARK
LOOK AT ME NOW
OR I’LL BE LEFT ALONE
WITH NO WHERE TO GO
‘CAUSE THE STAGE IS MY HOME
LOOK AT ME NOW
PAY THE CURTIAN NO MIND
ALL THAT’S BEHIND IT
A FAKE YOU WILL FIND
LOOK AT ME NOW
PLEASE CAN’T YOU SEE
THE ONLY THING THAT I LIVE FOR
IS IF YOU PLEASE LOOK AT ME!

Disturbing. I can picture a such a persyn, but I wouldn't know the trouble or hurt e has inside. I guess some in my high school were a little like this, but I didn't know them.
The poem makes me feel sadness and pity. People are often hard for me to understand.
Hugs and Bright Blessings,
