lyrics

Every morning when I wake up, can't help feeling alone
Get up early put on make up, right there beside you on the telephone
7:30 something's shaking my insides and my bones
Feeling something I can't mention
Right there bleeding on the side of the road

I don't wanna seem
Like I'm meaning to be mean
But I've seen through this scene
And I'm not falling for your pyramid scheme

Start it over from the first time, guilt trip with nothing to show
Feel your fingers lock in mine, it's the patterns that you want me to know
Hit the snooze and keep on dreaming, we got a ways to go
Filling shoes and supper scheming
What with your arrow and your miniature bow

I don't wanna seem
Like I'm meaning to be mean
But I've seen through this scene
And I'm not falling for your pyramid scheme
