And we sat upon your bed, 
You said the things you said 
And I could not believe that you seemed so naive 
We exchanged our poetry, 
You seem to think a lot like me 
I'll guess I'll just assume that we could talk about most anything 

Then I asked, have you ever felt abandoned 
Felt so lost that you were stranded, 
Just like all the walls were closing in 
And you were left inside 
Have you ever felt like your days were numbered 
Stuck under a tree in thunder 
There seems to be no way out
But there is one when in doubt 

Ready for another day
Slowly watch you waste away, 
Havin' fun, bein' cool 
Like we did in high school, 
Elementary romance feelin' nervous at the dance, 
Crack a smile hold it down, 
Whatever the circumstance,  [bad word]  [bad word]  hadda be cool, 
All the things we learned in school, 
Typical teenage machines, 
Anyone tell me what this means? 
I could learn, I could try, 
Never really had an alibi 
Wish I did, that’s no lie 
 [bad word]  
Everybodys askin why
When you feel like you can't fly 
You know I got the answers for you baby, 
Drives yah crazy it's not over 
So much more to life then this
Why, when you feel like you can't fly 
You know I got the answers for you baby, 
Drives yah crazy, it's not over 
So much more to life then this 

Things seem so hallucinary, 
In the corners of my mind that scare me, 
I know yah never meant to desert me, 
Just like yah never really meant to hurt me 

Then I asked have you ever felt abandoned? 
Felt so lost that you were stranded, 
Just like all the walls were closing in 
And you were left inside 
Have you ever felt like your days were numbered? 
Stuck under a tree in thunder 
Seems to be no way out 
But there is one when in doubt

And you ask why... [bad word]  

So much more to life than this
So much more to life than this
