lyrics

Now, all I hear are cars across concrete
the sound of a smirk, and the look of defeat.
Now, all I like can be written down on a single page,
I'll call it all out without even a hint of delay.

There's too many sad friends,
I'm tired of always having to pick up your chins.
Because my heart is too nice to ever say "no".
I'm a three-year-old girl who just wants to put on a show.

I think if I tried I'd make a good bookmark,
but my family tree is carved out of hard bark.
How much longer until I start living for today
and not tell myself it's all up to fate?

I'm a human target, dartboard.
What does it mean if I find talking a chore?
Maybe the sun has gotten used to going down
because we traded our smiles in for frowns.

I'd give all my riches just for single day
not to hear any of my private school friends complain.
I'd give all my riches for one single day,
I just don't wanna hear any of my friends complain.
