I don't wanna walk out on this story yet But I need a reason to believe I'm not just getting older; I'm getting better and I'll be safe And asleep inside your arms again Cause everyone's acting way too serious I wish I could win this contest and help my mom pay rent But I'm no movie star Don't tell me the mason jar is half way full I'm golden, all my friends are goin' I feel lost I feel lost Pins and needles Find the strength to carry on, but at what cost? I can't call it comfortable I'm numb again Can't pull a kurt cobain cause I'm not twenty-seven And no one knows me I'll be another unpublicized pile of bones Washed up onto long beach island I feel lost I feel lost Pins and needles Find the strength to carry on, but at what cost?
