lyrics

• at last •

the world got so tough
and then unbearable
i am unseen
worse than invisible

i sit in a room
until i am the room
thoughts drip like drool
till they could fill a pool
an ocean of mistakes
no lifeguard
bad swimmer
that’s all it takes

i’ve been nice to people
they ain’t been nice to me
yea i’ve been nice to people
they ain’t been so nice to me
from a smile to a frown
from a friend to a clown

you might just disagree
and then flat out admire
the way they shot me up
i thought i blew a tire

i sit in a room
until i am the room
thoughts build like rocks
till you could ski them in winter
an avalanche of need
somebody stop me
somebody stop me
i’m pickin’ up speed

i’ve been nice to people
they ain’t been nice to me
yea i’ve been nice to people
people ain’t been so nice to me

from my house to the mall
from the mall to the school
at last i’m nobody’s fool
at last i…
at last i…
at last i…
