I'm just that pair of shoes that you forgot at a party two weeks ago
You didn't know you needed them 'til now
I'm just that white Bic lighter that's been lying on the sidewalk outside your house
And you won't pick it up
'Cause you think that it's bad luck
And I don't think that I'll try to convince you otherwise
It's just not worth my time

I'm just a taxi driver
I'd take you home, but you would never even think of doing the same
I'm just an ice cream stand
You need me for two months of the year and then you throw me away
So someone please tell me why I still have so much hope left
I'm still here trying to get your attention when I should just be feeling depressed

But
I have no real friends
I just have a fading list of people that I used to go to school with a few years ago
And don't even try to think that you're any better than me
I know that you're not
I know that you're not

I'm sorry if I have you bored half to death
I know that talking to me is not the best thing that you could be doing
But sometimes I'm funny & mildly interesting
I don't know
If I've been talking too much or just not enough so
Let me know
If I should still bother fighting or just hang the gloves up
All of these sleepless nights are slowly killing me
And I want to change
But I don't understand what you want from me
And I don't know much
But one thing that I know is

I have no real friends
I just have a fading list of people that I used to go to school with a few years ago
And don't even try to think that you're any better than me
I know that you're not
I know that you're not

I have no real friends
I just have a fading list of people that I used to go to school with a few years ago
And don't even try to think that you're any better than me
I know that you're not
I know that you're not
