more recycled song goodness

You know you want another crappy song.


the kindly forgotten

did you come to save me
from my stubborn reflection
drowning in math and apple pies
gasping for carbon dioxide
or will you just pass me by?

will you take me away
to a place I don't exist
chained to the swimming pool fences
freed from my self-defenses
or will you just pass me by?

but my head is buried in the snow-white sand
and I can't stand up
but my mind is locked up in the moral bank
and I can't wake up

could you hear me whispering
from the pedestal I built
reaching for the lies in your face
wishing for one last embrace
or will you just pass me by?

but my head is buried in the snow-white sand
and I can't stand up
but my mind is locked up in the moral bank
and I can't wake up

I thought you were different
but now I'm not so sure
I thought you were different
but you're just like everyone else
you can barely save yourself

and so you pass me by
and so you pass me by

still my head is buried in the snow-white sand
and I can't stand up
and my mind is locked up in the moral bank
so I can't wake up
I can't wake up
