lyrics

i hit a dog with my car
since the last time i saw you
took it as a sign and that's why
i never called you
and he was fine
but i never did get to apologize
and in my mind
i still hear them say he's gonna die
i hear them say he's gonna die

i hit the mall with my friends
and i looked at all the shit
that i could not afford i felt bored
and bad about it
so i got high
and i watched that girly movie that you like
i watched it twice
but i'm not the kind of girl you like
i'm not the kind of girl you like

am i low?
am i underwater?
how would i know if i'm always holding my breath?

i'll sit alone in the sun
and i'll let it swallow me
if i close my eyes it's just like
i have tomorrow free
but instead
i have to wake up and go to work again
so let's be friends
cause my next day off is saturday
and i wanna go see that new band play!
hey!!! hey!!!!!!!!
