lyrics

I was voted "Most Likely To Seethe"
by those who knew little about me.
I had become a strange machine.
Lost parts long ago,
that made me make-believe.

Hey! Look there beside you.
It means enough to me.
I know you're a special thing.
They say I'm just like you,
still you turn me away.
I don't know what's happening.

On the outskirts to search,
no self worth found.
We booked a "No-Tell", a shell
for our let downs.
I had become a strange machine.
Lost parts long ago,
created myself from all I could borrow,
gave to you, a lifetime's worth of sorrow.

Hey! Look there beside you.
It means enough to me.
I know you're a special thing.
They say I'm just like you
still you turn me away.
I don't know what's happening.

I'll make it without you.(repeat)

There are those that will say,
"Yeah, I'll give you my all."
Well, I don't know how much trust to thrust upon them
when they say, "pencil me in."
I've never loved anyone
who wasn't a friend.
I can't make it without you.(repeat)
