when you ask me why i've changed,
i lie and tell you because i like it
the blue hair and the television
the texting and the myspace
but really it's because
when i morph into a shallow representation
of everything i can't stand
it just means i don;t have to face me
it turns into this magnificent round of questions, vicious cycle of why why whys
why do i hate everyone?
because i hate myself
why do i hate myself?
because i'm not good enough for truth in cliche
why are you not good enough?
because i can't stick to the plan
why can't you stick to the plan?
because i get distracted by everyone else
But when i'm distracted, i don't feel unhappy
I feel normal, like i'm told i should
there is no depression and anger
there is no tears and insanity
but on days like today, when i'm forced to be alone
i start thinking all these fucked up thoughts
and i feel so lost and unloveable
so then i trace it back, try to find the last time i felt sure
and i see matt's face in the crossroads
everytime i have to freeze, remind myself that it can't happen again
but then the whys, they keep attacking
why can't it happen?
because wanting an abusive relationship is sick
Why is that sick?
because love is not meant to be so painful
why is pain not love?
because the cliches say it isn't
Why aren't you over the cliches?
because i still live in this world
I have this disgusting need to talk to him, but i don't know what to say
actually, that's a lie
I know exactly what to say
I want to tell him I still love him
I want to appologize for being ordinary
I want to ask him what it was he saw in me that made him expect more
and why i haven't met anyone else who sees it too
I'm so scared of him laughing
I'm so scared I'm out of his head
it's another of those one sided situations
no matter how much i care, there's still a big chance i could just be a joke
I wrote a song about him
I wrote one about chris too
i still mean that one
i still mean this one
I'm so confused and torn and undecided
If i could have one wish right now i would wish matt magically back into my life
just for the summer
just until he leaves for college and i'll never see him again
just long enough to see if he remembers who i used to be
what do you say we go for a ride
