Snyder Doesn't See Me

if this is only just high school
and you are only just a girl
then why does this situation feel
like the end of the fucking world?

i try to sit and smile
try to put on a game face
you sit and look right through me
my name you must erase

cable cars flying over head
you sit and listen softly
tapping your pen and whispering
with a face that says 'don't cross me'

i wonder what i did this time
who you think i screwed
i wonder why this keeps happening
why we came unglued

i'm ready to leave this hell hole
and soar higher than the sun
to walk out these high school doors
and know real life has begun

so here we go again
same old shit again
bells keep ringing
and i keep losing friends

look in my direction
just send a smile my way
i need you to hold me
i help me get through my day

i'd be going through cali maps
any other night
but i got bit by a ladybug
and i didn't know they bite

i'm stuck in this dilemma
that i didn't cause
for a three month period
just picking out my flaws

you left me too
just when i was low
breaking and unstable
now i sit without a label

we fell asleep side by side
laying flat out on our backs
and talked about suicide
with lil' i love you's falling through the cracks

well i had a bad day and
my iPod snagged my ears
but i hate this
every time its ugly head rears

you have your goofy smile
and your 98 pound lover
who tells you lies and i love you
when you're going under

we put pokemon cards
between our spokes
rode down to that creek
as soon as we woke

but now i am the monster
slaughtering my chances
falling off of high wires
drowning in lost romances

so here we go again snyder
same old shit again
bells keep on ringing
and i keep losing friends
