I Am Not A Cowboy

She said "I love you, but I don't think I like you"
He held her hand and said goodbye
He had the highest possible ideals
Without a method to realize
'Cause she took care of all the things he needed
As he neglected his emotional state
As she lost interest, his hairline receded
He grew a neckbeard and put on weight
He said "I'm sorry I couldn't figure it out
Couldn't get my act together, couldn't make it work
The world was built for me and I did nothing in it
Maybe it's the privilege that makes it worse
So I sit at the bar with all this lost potential
Embarrassed and defeated, has it all gone to waste?
'Cause I am not a cowboy, and life is not a movie
These are all real people, I've made a mistake"
