Misery
loves company
when company won't call
Your left with a mouthful of ten thousand wrong words
It's all I got but it's what I want
Sympathy
was everything
when everything fell short
A text book example of a childhood in shambles
It's not what I want
but it's what I got
Eventually
I came to see
that I was seeing things all wrong
I put expectations on people who gave in
my broken heart beats like a bomb
Life burns up faster than flames to a photograph
A big stack of mishaps so much time spent feeling bad
Despite all the beauty that drips right off our loved one's lips
A child like reaction that starts and stops in selfish fits
I'm trying hard to stay awake
long enough to see the day
Where I can finally say
I did something right for a change
I turned to you
in hopes that I will improve
You turn to me
but I just lie there half asleep
You turn to him
hoping he'll make you whole again
I turn to her
and in the end we all get burned
I'm trying hard
to stay awake
long enough to see the day
Where I can finally say
I did something right for a change
Because god I need a change
Misery loves company
but when company won't call
You're left with a mouthful of ten thousand wrong words
It's all I got but it's what I want
