Don't tell me all about your reasons
To delude me to your pointlessness
Because this is not what I believe in
But I don't want to leave it quite like this
I can't approach a lot of people
Who are standing very close to me
They make me think of what I could've been
And now there just supposed to leave
And I don't try to be like I am
It's just like that
And I just stay in bed
And I just waste the day
Things don't come and go
They just fade away

The girl is walking
And I'm nervously watching
As I go out of my way
To walk past her
She waves at me slowly
And she's dressed so cozy
And she smiles at me
As she walks away
The girl is walking
And she's good at drawing
And she talks with her friends
Yeah she talks with her friends
And she has big eyes
And dances so nice
And I had such a nice time
Walking with her

I'm undisturbed
So I can tell you now
Remember when I drew you
A picture of an owl?
We sat next
To each other at St. Paul
I never found out
What those flowers are called
But do you know
That I don't
Think you're just anybody?
Some of your ambition
Rubbed off on me
But you always make it seem
Like all you want to do is grow up
And I'm just a big kid
In love
I used to work at Jamba Juice
And I would always just think about you
Like how had your day been
And when I would see you next
Little did I know
It wouldn't be very long
But everything was all wrong
And with the ticket of the movie
That I took you to
You folded me a fortune teller
There was no fortune to come true
You had me hanging by a thread
As I waited for the time to come
To say I'm just a big kid
In love with you
Now I'm coming back
Just to say goodbye to you

Something's coming fast; it kills me and my heart
It leaves me just lying on my bed
Thinking about this girl
Who I'll never see walk past me again
And I thought I would get what I want
But I never even knew her that well
I regret what I've done
Because now I'm all by myself
I will ask her to dance
Try as hard as I can

The things we could have done
If you had been with me
We have a lot in common
But now there things you won't see
I was waiting for the day
Where I could find the strength
To take you to some place
But that day never came
The things we could have seen
If we weren't all alone
Just tell me one thing
Why don't you answer your phone?
Now look where we are
We both have nothing to do
The seasons have changed a lot
And the sky is still blue

She lives right down the hall
But I don't know her at all
Walk past the doors of the people I see
And meet them as I go to brush me teeth
But all I want to do is go to sleep
And I can't because me roommate snores
I've never been the one to say hello
So I hope they'll just knock on my door
She lives right down the hall
But I don't know her at all
I watch her hand click the four
As we step into the elevator
As we go up, we finally meet
And she said she sees me a lot
We walk back to our doors
And I hope I see her more often
I live close to the laundry room
But what is it that I'm supposed to do?

I know
the trees are blue
and i won't
tell them
what you said
to me
I want
to sit with you
against the tree
with all
the green leaves
again
I know
the trees are blue
and they call
out to you
and me

I open up my eyes
And I see all these people
They're bottled up inside
Every one of them - sealed
They're waiting for a chance
So I just wait with them
We briefly share a glance
But we'll never meet again
Because all of this
Runs in between
All the things
That I haven't seen
I just sit here
And don't do a lot
Because If I go out
I'll just become what I'm not
Sofas
No coasters
It's hot in here
He follows her
I'm walking back
I don't say goodbye
She's staying there
But why should I mind?
Because I don't even know
What she is to me
And I don't even know
Who I'm supposed to be
She should just
Have her fun
Cause why should she just settle
And succumb to my love?

fragile words

Wasted
All this time we could have spent
Doing so many things
That I would never forget
Saying
We're in a fragile world
Where I can't be too sure
And you say words that hurt
Cause you don't care
About me
It's all in your head
Don't bother me today
I was hoping to feel my pain
So many times I've tried to say
That I can tell you're better
Because you don't let it upset you
Soon we'll be together
Soon we'll see all this go by
Cause you're my kind
But opposite star sign
And I don't want to be somebody
That you can't find

It only goes to show
That I'll always be alone
And I can't just let you be
Because you will forget about me
And you know
I'll do so many things
To stay right by you
And you
Just sit idly by
And do what you do
But that's not how it's supposed to be
You're supposed to be with me
Do you really think he's gonna back it up
If something or other seems to show itself up?
No, I don't and nor should you
You've got better things to do
Just say it's not your problem
Because I can tell he doesn't care at all
And I
Will do so many things
To stay right by you
But you
Just sit idly by
And do what you do
That's not how it's supposed to be
You're supposed to be with me
I want to be with you
I want to be with you
