Jaded Teenager - Odds Stacked Against Me
What the hell was I thinking?
It’s the poison you’ve been drinking
That’s got me acting this way
I know it’ll all be ok
But I just want you to sit down and listen to
What I have to say
Who the hell am I joking?
It’s that shit you’ve been smoking
That’s got me talking like this
All I do is reminisce
About these things that I remember
That might not even exist
I don’t believe in fairy tales anymore
They’ve failed me too many times before
I’ve depended on hopes and dreams
That are never quite what they seem
I’m going to base it all on fact
And keep reality intact
I won’t let fantasies take control of me
These fantasies have quite a hold on me
What the hell is wrong with me?
Trying to be someone that I can’t be
Act like myself, that’s all I’ve gotta do
If I’m trying to impress you
Cause acting like someone else
Is a easy costume to see through
What the hell is going on?
This feels wrong, like I just don’t belong
You know I’ll never fit in
With these people you call friends
I just want you, not all them too
All they do is get under my skin
I don’t know what is happening
I keep trying, and keep failing
I don’t know what else I can do
Because it hurts when I think of you
I don’t know how I should react
To a statement with such impact
But my feelings are still intact
Even considering the way that the odds are stacked
I don’t believe in fairy tales anymore
They’ve failed me too many times before
I’ve depended on hopes and dreams
That are never quite what they seem
I’m going to base it all on fact
And keep reality intact
I won’t let fantasies take control of me
These fantasies have quite a hold on me
I don’t believe in fairy tales anymore
They’ve failed me too many times before
I’ve depended on hopes and dreams
That are never quite what they seem
I’m going to base it all on fact
And keep reality intact
I won’t let fantasies take control of me
These fantasies have quite a hold on me
It’s the poison you’ve been drinking
That’s got me acting this way
I know it’ll all be ok
But I just want you to sit down and listen to
What I have to say
