lyrics

So I straighten my views,
Get back to the news
And read until I understand it, too.
Everything printed is fact. That's the way it should be.
At least that's what they told me,
So I pick up a pen and I write out a story
Of a day deep in meaning, a life that won't bore me
And everything written is wasting the time I could spend
Trying to make amends.
So I save and I save and I save and I save
And I wait and I wait for a rainy day
When these pages become an umbrella,
When these words can just be washed away.
Then I start on a list of the way things are different
But run out of paper before I can finish it
And fit the reasons why I deserve it
On the end of a filter of a cigarette
(Which I then smoke).
Who cares if anything changes? I don't.
I just want to stay real and then stay here forever.
With a blank look on my face and a blank piece of paper,
I write myself into a smile.
Found in the fiction aisle.
It's a best seller.
People buy it every time.
