I notice people are looking at me, do they like what they see?
If they don't should i care? do i care? no i don't. I am me
I better study get my grades up
I missed a project don't even want to think about my luck
I think about that guy that interviewed Conor Oberst
He was so chatty and ordinary, Conor looked like he might burst
and just scream and just cry and just laugh ,slowly die
he looks so sick he looks so sweet i want to hug him and be complete-
Ly in love with his ways, i sort of am, from afar
oh, i wish he was seventeen
We could hang in an empty pool while he smokes and i lean
Yes, i lean
On the cement building that i have known from so long ago
and i tell him what i've done and how with him it'd be for fun to go out of my house and take a stroll through this memorable neighborhood
this neighborhood
Where my mom was gardening, my brothers playing, Tony listening to Reggae and everything was good
Everything was good
Everything is good
Everything was good
Now i'm singing and playing guitar in my empty classroom
Everyone is downstairs watching the girls' game and cheering
i'm glad they're cheering
I just want him to walk in with his smile and endearing
His endearing voice i so long for i'll one day hear in person but it won't be half how i want it to be
But that's okay
I have pictures i can observe and music he has left in my heart, in my heart
And in my soul in my soul
In my heart in my heart and soul
My stomach is hungry, but it hasn't told my brain
I am new to this world, but everything else is the same
And who is there to blame?
No one
No one is to blame
Today is a good day
Today is a good day
Goodbye
Don't cry
Goodbye
Don't you cry
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Don't you cry
