I can never tell if I should take the things you say With a shaker of salt or just a single grain Maybe I should just shut up and stay in line And wait until the sky decides it wants to rain Maybe I'm missing something Maintaining this romanticized illusion of my adolescence Only makes me more depressed Every other time I speak my mind I feel like I'm some kind of criminal That's on some six week sentence of house arrest Watching friends abruptly changing like the weather
Begs the question that perhaps they weren't meant to last forever Rotate people in according to the forecast I guess my time is here Swallow up the key that's underneath your doormat Lightning strikes a branch of the Manson family tree And I'm so sick and tired of the hive-minded vanity And the blind that's turned to the insanity Maybe this wasn't meant to last forever Maybe this wasn't meant to last forever Maybe this wasn't meant to last forever
