i got one shoe on my feet
i told my friends i'd go to the parade
but waited far too long to leave
i met a boy last week
and then i told him that i liked him
he said that was pretty bold of me
isn't it
isn't it
the way things always go for me
honesty
gets misconstrued
and met with some weird apathy
and now i'm sitting on the couch
with one foot stuck in my mouth
and the rest of me is stuck inside in my head
and i'm just trying to figure out
the real way things all went down
and not the way i wanted it instead
i can't comprehend
that when it happens in the movies
all the actors get a second chance and
the audience all cheers
but in real life when you show your cards
what you thought was magic disappears now
isn't it
isn't it
exactly what has happened here?
transparency
got confused
viewed like some narcissistic party trick
but no one's even watching it
and now i'm sitting on my couch
with one foot stuck in my mouth
and the rest of me is stuck inside in my head
and i'm just trying to figure out
the real way things all went down
and not the way i wanted it instead
instead
i wrote a letter on a plane
it said "i miss you" and
"what's your middle name?"
i tore it up and threw it away
i threw it away
and i took a ferry the very next day
to a small island
off the coast of L.A.
and everyone there knew me by my fake name
by my fake name
(i don't know you but i'd like to)
(i don't know you but i'd like to)
'cause i don't do too much talking anymore
that doesn't lead to me saying sorry or
getting ignored
and heaven knows i'm getting pretty bored
i'm getting pretty bored
and i don't have many friends anymore
who don't seem to view me like some
pawn on chess board
heaven knows i'm getting pretty bored
i'm getting pretty bored
and i'm sitting on my couch
with one foot stuck in my mouth
and the rest of me is stuck inside in my head
and i'm just trying to figure out
the real way things all went down
and not the way i wanted it instead
i told my friends i'd go to the parade
