Something New

There's something new in my way I thought about him all that day Sitting at home, dying alone Then again, who am I to say? We both know I've been down that same road I know it gets lonely when that phone rings It's the last thing you wanna hear I should know better by now But after all, I'm so tired of explaining All the things I should have said I secretly always knew But that news came way too soon I was sitting at home and wondering why I couldn't even look you in the eye I heard all those things that your father told you You know it's not right, but taking your own life Might be the only thing that you see through I should know better by now But after all, I'm so tired of explaining All the things I should have said It's alright to complain It's alright to feel pain I thought I had the answers to all of my problems With one thing but it's always the same I go in one door and right out the other I'm left with me and James and a million little pieces It's not that I want them all To be sorry when I'm gone I'm just tired of waking up I'm gonna try the pills tonight I'm gonna try and do it my way And watch it all fall apart I should know better by now But after all, I'm so tired of explaining All the things I should have said --- Something New - Dead to Me
