I don't wanna walk out on this story yet
But I need a reason to believe
I'm not just getting older; I'm getting better and I'll be safe
And asleep inside your arms again
Cause everyone's acting way too serious
I wish I could win this contest and help my mom pay rent
But I'm no movie star
Don't tell me the mason jar is half way full

I'm golden, all my friends are goin'
I feel lost
I feel lost
Pins and needles
Find the strength to carry on, but at what cost?
I can't call it comfortable
I'm numb again
Can't pull a kurt cobain cause I'm not twenty-seven
And no one knows me
I'll be another unpublicized pile of bones

Washed up onto long beach island
I feel lost
I feel lost
Pins and needles
Find the strength to carry on, but at what cost?
