09 Target

Do you ever wonder how
You haven't made it somewhere by now
You've been paying dues since seventeen
And yet no one remembers you
You want so badly to be noticed
You're still racking up that show list
But for all the time you've spent
Maybe you're not meant to be heard
You've been selling the right lies
You've been screwing the right guys
But then here you are still crying
In the front seat of your car
With all these songs about your problems
Yet you never work to solve them
They're in your thank-you list
Along with every chance that you have missed
You're in a battle with yourself to see
How long that you can play pretend
You smile for the camera, act like you're alright
Around your friends
Well I have seen you at your worst
I've seen you struggle not to quit
You wonder if they even care
You wonder if they give a shit
Well why don't you ask them?
It's so clear that this place could never be your home
You could not be more, could not be more alone
