a tale my mom once told me

well they've told me I deserve a real nice girl
who will never scare the hell out of me
and ill admit it - I miss my exes
when I get down and lonely

Its the worst when they fell like fiction
a tale that my mom once told me
and even when I'm surrounded by my best friends
I still get down and lonely
If I ever fall in love-
will I still get down and lonely?

you took that piercing out and let the holes fill in
I'm glad cause I like you the way you are
for that face I'm sure many would kill
I hate when I feel left out of something
I didn't care to be a part of in the first place

yeah, I'm still a blank canvas
and when I'm older I won't wish for that action to be erased
and when I meet that girl- who doesn't fill voids
with those god damn cigarettes
I'll probably tell her she's my world
I'm not quite sure that I've met her yet
I'm not quite sure that I've met her yet
