I've never been one to spend money on the fast lane products With all the ads popping out of the wrappers promising internal happiness if you use them But here I am, with no options left I'm hoping I can find it in these soda cans and sour patch kids Because I can remember a time when I was just doing fine And these snacks made my entire life I wasn't soaking in this water that I'm in today I didn't have all these internal voices shouting at me I just had older adults and kids tell me what to do, and boss me around But now, I wish I can hear those sounds Cause even if they were just shouts, they were coming from someone else (And I have forgotten what that feels like) But today, I tried I tried to remember all those voices that gave me a smile And so, I threw on The Killers, and I turned my speakers loud But Miss Atomic Bomb came on And I thought of you and your destructive ways And how you always told me that "everything will never be okay" And so I listened to you, I always did, until I moved I moved far away, because I thought I'd be okay And I wanted you to know that I found a place to grow That I cultivated love, and I made it my home That I'll finally be happy, because now I was with her Until the miles increased, and she decided to leave (Just like you) And what else could go wrong? Every person is gone I used to have you, now all I have is this song My head's open now, so it's probably best address "How can you be so selfish leaving me like this?" I repeated that question to you, but only in my head Cause I knew that there was no selfish thing about you I was just a f*ck up I constantly talked about myself and my day And when it was your turn, I would force myself to sleep I was so shitty, and darling, you still stayed But I guess that one day, it was just too much And I want you to know that I took your advice And went out for lunch with a girl from my job And I thought she was great But after one date, she relayed that all my reading had been done in vain I was too late and I was never gonna change And then I came to you What gives you the right to try and justify you calling me selfish after just one time? I swear I finally found someone here that would be my ear But after that night had become 6:4, you claimed I was unfair And f*ck, how could you not understand That I was trying to be a better man And I'm just confused cause I told you on multiple occasions That I had been reading books And I had been learning to cook That I had been lifting weights And sharing my own space with people and their stories So how can you condemn without your ballpoint pen writing down all the places I've been To try to get out of this position I'm in But I guess I'll apologize for getting lost in the moment And I'll apologize for handing out one-sided conversations It's just been a while since I've had any at all And yet, with all these things that are off of my chest I still have one left that burns more than the rest And along if I could rewrite this song I would go through my contact list and curse every name on it Cause it diminishes with each year that passes by But I'll hold my head up high cause I know I'll be fine And if you say your honest, then please reply Do you still care if I'm alive?
