there s something new in my way i thought about him all that day sitting at home dying alone then again who am i to say we both know i ve been down that same road i know it gets lonely when that phone rings it s the last thing you wanna hear i should know better by now but after all i m so tired of explaining all the things i should have said i secretly always knew but that news came way too soon i was sitting at home and wondering why i couldn t even look you in the eye i heard all those things that your father told you you know it s not right but taking your own life might be the only thing that you see through i should know better by now but after all i m so tired of explaining all the things i should have said it s alright to complain it s alright to feel pain i thought i had the answers to all of my problems with one thing but it s always the same i go in one door and right out the other i m left with me and james and a million little pieces it s not that i want them all to be sorry when i m gone i m just tired of waking up i m gonna try the pills tonight i m gonna try and do it my way and watch it all fall apart i should know better by now but after all i m so tired of explaining all the things i should have said
