Take a deep breath, think about what you said
bring it back again and realize what it meant
it's just so hard here pretending
that everyone is perfect
that everything is worth it
like it used to be
I really wonder what happened
I thought people never changed

we skated schoolyard steps
and on the lake when it froze
now I'm just cynical and everybody knows
I used to laugh but then it got old
now I'm just cynical and everybody knows

where did the voices in my head come from?
I swear it's all news to me
I really wonder what happened
I thought people never changed
I really wonder what happened
I thought this would never change

we skated schoolyard steps
and on the lake when it froze
now I'm just cynical and everybody knows
I used to laugh but then it got old
now I'm just cynical and everybody knows

you'll all throw your wish in the well
but I'll keep mine a secret
my body's soaked and raw
I'm too tired to think yet nobody cares at all
