When Will I Learn

Sunday, April 3rd, 2011

I bought you everything that you asked for,
everything but you wanted more,
I guess it wasn’t quite enough.
I did everything that you asked me to,
everything that I could do,
I guess it wasn’t quite enough.
I should have acted like a hopeless pessimist,
’cause I know that you’re a sucker for that type,

Please

Why must you pick on me?
Have you no sympathy?
I’m just trying to get to school.
I lack popularity, no friends to ride with me.
So I’m alone in the car pool (lane).
When I saw those flashing lights,
when I heard you read my rights,
I knew this wasn’t gonna be my day…
So, Officer please don’t...

Pollution

why do you treat me oh so badly oh so cruel
I’m just a good boy needs a good girl someone cool
now I can’t live with out you
I want to live
I need a solution
too much pollution
is in my head
think about you night and day
I’ve got to get away
you’re always in my head
why don’t you call...

All Alone

I’m all alone but my heart is full
I’m a sunken stone, I’m thinking you’re the pool
I’m lost in space, but I’m on the ground
you can find my heart in the lost and found
because you are not like all the rest
a girl who puts me to the test
so why must you be oh so rude
giving me that attitude

Far behind

All I need is a walking cane, to guide me on my way.
A hat to push away the rain, that would be okay.
Starting over to begin, I’m standing here to strong.
I never thought I’d ever see it all…
I stand to tall, but I shrink away,
I never thought I’d feel as good as the way I feel today.
So I’ll run away,...
