I pretended

So that I would feel wanted

I said I loved you

When I didn’t know what it meant to feel

I cried to be wanted

I’ve sat confused and watched everyone leave in disgust

I’ve lisened to her piano all to many time when I was falling apart

I’ve waited three months for my life to start but it was just a dream

I’ve always thought of myself as nothing

And I still do

I’ve always been searching and look where it’s brought me

I want a boy who loves her as I do

Isn’t afraid to argue

Who doesn’t smoke his life away

Won’t make promises he can’t keep

And never says I love you

Give me life, as Tori says

Give me peace

Give me myself again
