Average Joe

I'm not gonna lie, I miss you a lot
 Whether we're jokin about pot, connecting the dots or whatnot
 You've found your new life far away, and I'm just stuck here to stay and that's okay
 See, love is something powerful that really messes us up
 When we have something like that, we make bad decisions, that's just our luck
 And I made a bad decision
 So I take myself away in a whirlwind of emotion, bubbles all around me, yeah
 I'm drowning in this ocean
 The clouds that came in, they settled down hard
 I don't think that I'm gonna get far
 If you get with me, you don't have to worry about hovering
 Because I'm too busy covering my pain
 Burying it in angst with my teenage poems
 Talking about life, death, love, and all our crazy wacky motives
 You look at me, your Average Joe
 That's what she called me, she loved me so
 Yell my name in this dark abyss
 My love for you will never miss
 I watch as you fall in his arms, an overwhelming sound fills my head
 I'm deafened by alarms
 I'm crying in west Plano
 You're laughing in Toronto
 I'm sobbing in the sewers
 You're giving him full body tours
 His long hair and brown eyes, are they better than mine
 They say there's a million fish in the sea
 But damnit I had the perfect catch you see
 But I didn't know how to fish, so I let it go
 Dark skies and black crows
 What's even here
 Why are you here
 Who are you, who are we
 Why are we so selfishly driven by fear
 Maybe it's because of the overwhelming dread
 Of the monster under your bed
 Or the monster in your head
 Who creeps and crawls so awful in the night
 Feeds on your broken heart in the tattered moonlight
