I've never really wanted
anything i haven't got
but when it comes to you
you are everything i am not
but just because i want you
doesn't mean ill follow through
I've built you up
so its probably all untrue.
wouldn't you rather be a star to me
instead of the everyday boy
with your name up in lights
not on a napkin on the floor.
if you want to make me happy
stand at least three feet away
my fictitious word surrounds me
and i kind of like it that way.
so don't expect me to jump
off of a bridge i can't see
cause you may not be down there
prepared to catch me.
i know what you'll say.
take a chance, live a bit.
but I've swung so many times
always missed. never hit.
so for now you'll be the name in lights.
the picture on my wall
lets pretend you are a celebrity
that way I'm sure that i wont fall.
