[sort of a mixture of past poems of mine)
It's really not that bad
When secrets are told in high school bathroom stalls
Like paper begins to peel off our bedroom walls
It's not a big deal
When busy halls are a mess with boys
And not one of them know the difference between girls and toys
Its not a scary thing
If he spends a December in between your thighs
And leaves before he can rake the springtime
I fasten my seatbelt and watch the road
But this is all I know
CHORUS
I've tried and I've tried
I didn't think of it
But I lie and I lie
It's not that I don't mean it
What really happens,
When promises are made in the heat of the sheets?
Does it count when no one else is there to see?
How does it really feel,
When our words exist through drugs and sex?
Is there such thing to commit Russian Roulette?
Pockets of peppermint chew
Her name etched in a bright tattoo
Like her oval sea foam ring
Hanging from your ignition key
Nobody said it was easy
Nobody said it was easy
CHORUS
I fasten my seatbelt and watch the road
But this is all I know
I've tried and I've tried
I didn't think of it
But I lie and I lie
It's not that I don't mean it
I've tried and I've tried
Tell me it's not really this hard
Cause I've tried and I've tried
But I've lied and I've lied
And I've tried to let it be
Cause nobody said it was easy
Under the seatbelt safety
