about

The first demo song from an album I am currently trying to piece together. Depending on how many people like it, more might be on the way. :)

lyrics

Everybody knows the story
And no matter how it goes
I find it oh so boring
Everybody falls in love the same way
So no matter what you say
I cannot stay here till the morning
With you
With you
No no matter what you say
I cannot stay

Everybody passes on the sidewalk.
But they don't talk
Face to face
Everybody's dreaming of a bigger life
Adventure and alibis
In a far off place

But not you
Why not you?
You know exactly what it is you're meant to do.
Oh, so I won't be the one to hold you back
No I won't be the one to hold you

Everybody tells me not to worry
Or "what's your hurry
In getting there?"
Everybody stays awake so late at night
Telling such beautiful lies
And getting nowhere.

But not you
Why not you?
Don't you deserve to love someone
Who loves you too?
Oh, but I can't be the one to hold your hand tonight
No I won't be the one to hold you

And I told you I couldn't keep promises
I told you I couldn't keep promises
I told you my mind comes unraveled in ways so absurd
And I told you I wouldn't be second best
I told you I wouldn't be second best
And I told you my heart beats like
Tapping on fish tank glass
Warning I might be disturbed
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Everybody knows the story
It's raining it's pouring
It's always so boring
But not you
Why not You?
If I did everything you wanted me to do
Well I'd still not be the one to hold your heart.
No I'd still not be, and so I must depart
Oh, watch me come undone
Oh baby
I am not the one
