Lucky Charm
from 7/28/'02

everyone says to me
I got to change the world
maybe I like being discontent
everyone says to me
I got to get grown up
maybe I like my immaturity
maybe just maybe
I don’t want to be your lucky charm
maybe I don’t mind
watching you go blind
everyone says to me
I’m the man for the job
maybe I’d rather be unemployed
you are unimpressed
with everything I do
with everything I say to you
I don’t know, I’m not so sure
how I feel inside this blur
let me get caught up
in superficial thoughts and deeds
get my heart wrapped up
in everything that makes it bleed
I learned everything
I know by watching you
you always knew how to blame me
Yes, I’m guilty that is true
everyone says to me
I got to get on the ball
maybe I’m too smart
to think of anything but the fall
and all the bruises I will wear
if I take you up on your dare
maybe I don’t want to
save this world or pick up cans
maybe I would rather sleep all day
and listen to bands
maybe I want to throw my life away
tell me what’s wrong with that?
wasn’t that your plan?
