Mandarin

Mandarin

I can still remember you once loved me
Forget i never were
what can i say what can i do
to make it go away

thank you for the condescende
to stop and say hello
somebody is pouring me a drink
drunk and all alone

i am tearing myself into pieces
even tough i never fall
i am counting every hour
making sure i'm still around
i wish i could be more like you
than i always see things through
when i wake up smiling and everything's just

alright

i think i've lived five years these past two

months
stumble to my feet
what kind of place is in this world
not even knowing where i am
and my body takes a rest here
thanks you for the answers
a stranger pours my drink again
drunk and all alone

i am tearing myself into pieces
even tough i never fall
i am counting every hour
making sure i'm still around
i wish i could be more like you
than i always see things through
when i wake up smiling and everything's just

alright, to me
it's alright, to me
it's alright, to me
that you have more to say
that you have more to say

and i've walked alone
instructions follow me again
put me in my place
back against the wall

well i'm so sorry i'm still boring
you've got something that ignores me
i'm tearing myself into pieces
even tough i never fall
i am counting every hour
making sure i'm still around
i wish i could be more like you
than i always see things through
when i wake up smiling
when i wake up smiling (smile and dream)
when i wake up smiling (smile and dream)
when i wake up smiling (smile and dream)
when i wake up smiling (smile and dream)
smile and dream
