lyrics

I'm lonely like the last chip in the bag,
All we do is think things we've never had,
Like angels with knotted hair,
Like people who died and just don't care

I'm cold like a bike left in the snow,
I'm raw like a bad batch of cookie dough
Left on the counter, the doubters
In 4th grade gym teacher clothes

People love to act like there's something wrong,
We're all fine school's just too fucking long
I wanna hold you like mom does
When her kids come home too late

Fuck your honors student, he's overworked,
Get him a new life, a new T-shirt,
That reads he's the only one
That really gives a shit at all

And if he runs away or if he stays,
It all works out anyway,
Don't believe he's the only one
That really gives a shit at all

I'm dead like a fish without a bowl,
I'm lost like Alice in a rabbit hole,
And the silence as your eyelids
Slowly begin to close

I'm waiting like a check that won't get cashed,
In love like flame when it meets the match,
And the fire is desire
It's something you can't un-catch

Fuck your honors student, he's overworked,
Get him a new life, a new T-shirt,
That reads he's the only one
That really gives a shit at all

And if he runs away or if he stays,
It all works out anyway,
Don't believe he's the only one
That really gives a shit at all

Fuck your honors student, he's overworked,
Get him a new life, a new T-shirt,
That reads he's the only one
That really gives a shit at all
