Walking down the hallway
Passed a couple of couples
They looked so happy
Like they had no trouble
Another set were holding hands
Why I honestly don't understand
Maybe they guessed that I'm alone
And wanted me to get my own
All I want is none of this oppression
If I wanted, I'd get one

Don't aim to be a star
They spend life wading aimlessly
Giving out their light slowly
But all they get is the reality that
They will burn out and die
As if they never even existed

Forever might not be such a far fetched concept after all
It's just day after day,
Week after week
Month after month
Year after year
Of hanging in there.
Because in life, you are all you've got.

Upside down
I saw you through my tears
You kissed her lips
And made your way to her ears

It hurt at first
When I struggled with the facts
Then it just kinda clicked
We were never gonna last

So I gave you to her
She's less priviledged
And I trust her
To push you off the edge

It must be easy to remember the good old days
When they're gone
Must be so nice to reminisce about all the friends
When you've got no one
So great to hold on to it all
When it's all slipping away
Feels good to pick up the pieces
When it's fallen apart
It's so easy to take everything
And everyone for granted
Until they blow away like wind
Then you're left desolate
Empty
Blown away by the wind

To all the lovers,
It doesn't last.
To all the dreamers,
It hurts.
To all the patient ones,
You'll get tired.
To all the best friends,
You'll grow apart.
To the strong ones,
You'll break.
To the smart ones,
Your wisdom fails.
To the pretty ones,
You get nothing.
To the perfectionists,
Someone else is better.
To Earth,
You'll end.

More than five years ago you stormed my world
My entire existence you overturned
Your presence then kinda gave me hope
That one day to freedom I could elope

I stared at you almost everyday
A word to me you never really did say
You I loved, me you despised
And I decided to live in my lies

A smile here, a wave there
And watch my sanity disappear
You'll never know what you meant to me
And now you'll never know, so leave me be
