lyrics

That's the hardest thing, to write a song, one that's not too short and not too long, that lets them know just what I think is so wrong. Especially one about some lonely girl, who with just three words could change the world to me and leave a feeling that's so strong. But it's better here to share my lament, how I messed up and how that went. Things don't always end so happily. She didn't understand just how I felt, and she ended up with someone else because I was not the one she wanted me to be. So I went along and things were good, but I never really quite understood, if I had asked, just if she would. Now it's much too late, I'll never know. And that's always how the story goes. In the end I'm left here feeling low. I yell and scream and play my punk rock tunes, but inside I still feel like a goon 'cause I couldn't grasp the thing that meant the world to me. So when you look at me please don't feel bad, 'cause though I may seem really sad, things aren't as bad as I make them seem to be. There comes a time when you think you've got it made. The ones you love are safe, the bills are paid. It's right then that feelings start to fade. Next thing you know, you've lost it all. Where once you were feeling ten feet tall, you look around and realize you're so small. It's nothing new, it's a fear that we've all had. And you actually end up feeling glad when it happens "to them and not to me." So be glad right now for what you've got, because more often than not, things will not stay the way that you'd like for them to be.
