I am growing up and ignoring all the rules.
I'm breaking promises I made just to look cool.

I've always been the type of girl to just up and leave.
So when I left, my family didn't even call me.
I up and took off and went to the city.
I got no money for food so I'm getting pretty skinny.
I spend my money on my father's poison.
They said it always get him, but it's me that it's chosen.
I finally caved and called my mom for money.
She got kinda teary eyed and said, "When you coming home, honey?"
I told her Christmas, but I knew that I wouldn't.
When I hung up, I laughed 'cause it was fucking funny.
Laughed until I cried and my nose was red and runny.
Used to say I'd change the world and fuck some shit up.
Now my ugly face is wearing pretty make-up.
And I don't know how my friends are doing back at home.
I remember writing them perverted, dirty poems.
Maybe I'll send them as Christmas cards this year.
I've always been the type of girl to just up and leave,
Now I miss home, but it doesn't miss me.
I wanted to scream at you,
See if the rumors were true.
Is she really leaving her boyfriend?
Is she really leaving him for you?
I wonder if you're realizing what you do to girls.
There's something 'bout your sweet demeanor,
It hides the fact you think with your wiener.
Sorry if I'm putting it too blatantly,
But you're always on my mind.
I wonder if how they care about you,
Is even near the way I do.
For fifteen whole minutes,
Forgot that things aren't like they used to be.
I can't call you and you refuse to call me.
Everyone thinks I'm stupid for missing you.
But I've just been pretending that you're missing me too.
I've been patient, but now it's time,
Am I in your life or are you out of mine?
my horoscope swore my dream would come true;
what a lie. today, i didn't see you.
no words were exchanged;
i cried when i realized i was yours.
"some birds aren't meant to be caged,
their feathers are just too bright."
"please don't go."
"i'll buy us another hour."
how silly this all seems in the dark.
nothing but wandering hands,
both hearts beat separately.
"you're such a good friend."
"as are you."
its nothing.
absolutely nothing.
