Dirty Looks, by itty bitty
|
I sometimes find it strange that I'm
The only one who remembers these things
These wonderful, worth remembering things
Why is it I'm the only one
Who remembers all the things that we did together
All you ever saw were bads and
I was the optimistic one
I'd laugh it off and it would feel alright
Then you'd look at me and laugh along
While we listened to our favorite song
And I always thought it'd be like this forever
But you can
Not forget those dirty looks
Those misgiving words we often spoke
And sometimes I feel like you had never cared
But I...
I'm the optimistic one
Ms. Happy-happy
I'm not done
You'd look at me with those sad eyes
And I would give in everytime
Of course, I never thought you'd walk away from me
I gave you everything you ever wanted
And now you have the nerve
To deny me of your vibrant laugh
Your glowing eyes are once again dull
Like they were when I first met you
Like mine when I was still locked up inside my room
But you can
Not forget those dirty looks
Those misgiving words we often spoke
And sometimes I feel like you never cared
But I...
I did!
I was the optimistic one
Who laughed at all you'd ever done
I gave you the look and said step away from me
And you pushed me farther away
And I just can't help that it was all my fault
Ms. Happy-happy's no longer happy
I'm locked up in my room
I'm never laughing anymore
But I'm thankful I still don't cry
I threw out all of those photos
I threw out all your stuff
I forgot about those dirty looks and moved on...
What about you?
