lyrics

I feel like doing something today
maybe I'll get up and out of my way
I'll probably just go outside and have a smoke
it's so much easier pretending you're alone

everyone walking by looked so happy
what is it that I try not to be
because everyone walking by looked so happy
won't they just stop and look at me

now I'm sitting in my room because I won't go outside
I look out the window as they pass on by
telling myself I don't mind
waiting for someone to tell me it's fine

happiness based on contingency
resting hope in possibility
wishing my life were on tv
cause I'm still waiting for someone to save me

dried on tears from last night
moistened fears for the rest of my life
wanting to become someone I like
but there's no hope if I just won't face life

I'm pretty scared that I'll always be scared of being sad and alone
