When It Isn't Like It Should Be... Lyrics
Why is it everything's all loneliness with me? I guess sometimes I try
to hard, and sometimes you cause it, but it always carries on and on. "What
did you ever become?" you asked. I said, "I was told to be smiles and bright
eyed happiness, but sometimes I can't find anything to laugh at." "I don't
want to be here." you said. It seems like I almost always have that effect
on everyone. I say to myself, "You aren't the first one to think like me."
And I just want to be like everyone else. Why can't I be everything to
everyone else, or maybe just to you? Just once I would like to be something.
And I wouldn't mind if you'd like to be with me.

i just want to be like everyone else, why can't i be everything to everyone else, or maybe just to you... that is basically high school.
Sweet, lovely sweet.
never heard it
I've felt like this before. I love Chris Conley. He's so amazing!
This exactly how I feel a lot. A lot right now too. Saves The Day rules, these lyrics prove it. Any guy, I know, must go through this too many times.
beautiful and i have felt like this many-a-times
What cd is this song on???
Other than "All I'm Losing Is Me," I think this song has got the best lyrics!! I can relate to every single part of it in some way, it's so incredibly good. They didn't play it when I saw them in concert though :(, but were still amazing!
Volcomgirl, this song is on their first Demo. You're not going to find a copy of this anywhere so you're gonna have to download it.
The Track List
Hope that helps
I adore this song.
"I was told to be smiles and bright-eyed happiness, but sometimes I can't find anything to laugh at"
I know how it is to have people trying to cheer you up and you just can't bring yourself to be happy.
