lyrics

I was once someone I trusted
A piece of shiny metal finally now rusted
I tell myself it’s okay to sit alone
But now I know
There’s no chance that I’ll shine bright once more
The sun is finally setting and my body is worn
I may never stand the test of time and that’s fine
I’ll have to live outside the limelight

When I was alone,
I would dance by myself
I would cry in my room
And I would plead for help
I would plead for help
When I was alone,
I would dance by myself
I would cry in my room
And I would plead for help
I would plead for help

I bet you wish I was dead
I bet you never
Want to see me again
You just wanna
Wanna mess with my head
I just want to
To forget what I said
I bet you wish I was dead
I bet you never
Want to see me again
You just wanna
Wanna mess with my head
I just want to
To forget what I said

I was once someone I trusted
A piece of shiny metal finally now rusted
I tell myself it’s okay to sit alone
But now I know
There’s no chance that I’ll shine bright once more
The sun is finally setting and my body is worn
I may never stand the test of time and that’s fine
I’ll have to live outside the limelight
