lyrics

The notion stood despondently
in the form of a shadowed man
They ask of me, casually
So to laugh off irony as it stands
In a long straight line direct to me
Ho I, I knew them all
They told me lies subjectively
Because they never knew me at all

And I held their gaze,
Until they glazed
No I didn’t make the grade
It all seems like a waste of space

Was it something I said, Was it something I did
Did I wake up one day and no longer fit it
Did I act too weak or did I come on too strong?
Where did I go Wrong?

Was it something missed, was it something I’d seen
Did I go out all night when I should have stayed in?
Did I push you away when I should have held on?
Where did I go wrong

I handle things obsessively,
It’s just the way I am
Pending plans indefinitely
Then I’ll burn around where I stand
Until there’s nothing left in spite of me
And that’s when I fall
And I know subconsciously,
We’ve been here many times before

Was it something I said, Was it something I did
Did I wake up one day and no longer fit it
Did I act too weak or did I come on too strong?
Where did I go Wrong?

Was it something I tried, was it something It didn’t?
Did I get my own way when I should have gave in?
Did I talk to quick or did I go on too long?
Where did I go Wrong?

At first they seemed quite into me
and I amuse them where I can
The words dry up eventually,
They react by taking no ground,
Cause they wont put into what they cannot see,
And that’s a shame all round
As I would give incessantly
If only they would make a sound

Was it something I said, Was it something I did
Did I wake up one day and no longer fit it
Did I act too weak or did I come on too strong?
Where did I go Wrong?

Was it something missed, was it something I’d seen
Did I go out all night when I should have stayed in?
Did I push you away when I should have held on?
Where did I go Wrong?
