Now it's time I contradicted myself
I wonder if it was the pepto bismol
Pink is really the best color of all
Or maybe it was spice
all tangled up in ribbon
perhaps it was the ice that froze
my aching stomach
or maybe it's because
I got to stay home today
no one to tell me what to do
no one to force me anywhere
The apartment is silent
I am completely alone
I'll make a decision for myself
I spent too long looking at you
as much as you need to be noticed
you have nothing to do with me
So i look in the mirror
happily I don't find you there
just little ole me
so go on with your bad self
since i am long overdue
for some right hand action
I can find my own ecstasy
in that word for pleasure
I love the look of my name
so who was it I really needed
when you were too busy?
even if you don't need me
I am still Fucking Gorgeous
even if I don't want you
you are still Fucking Gorgeous
maybe it was the puncture wounds
from playing with kitten
it could have been my MP3 player
reminding me to get over it
That photo of my mom and dad
shines from behind curtains
they always told me
to do what makes me happy
and I'm not happy
so i'll build up a defense
against your blame
you won't hurt me anymore
I'm too strong for that
gotta love the life you got
I slept for 10 hours yesterday
and another 6 overnight
then another 8 today
I got nothing better to do
than update my myspace
I'm still a little queasy to go out
but thats just fine with me
I'll turn off my phone
Who cares about AIM?
there isn't anyone in this place
who can love me like me
So i can't find a way to fit
into your loving arms
I've got a set of my own
Who cares if you don't need me
I'm still unbelievably awesome
Does it matter if I can't find you?
you're still desperately impressive
I do wonder what you are doing
with your day today
Are you sitting around
taking the day off
maybe surfing the thrift shops
finding a perfect stuffed animal
like I did so many years ago
Are you sitting behind that desk
waiting for five to roll around
to head out to save the world
ducking behind buildings
to go unseen
so nothing can get to you
do you think of me?
I have this japanese techno
just percolating my soul
bubbling the bad feelings out
the poison in my stomach
is working itself out
and with it you are disappearing
though there was a time i'd feel guilty
for breaking you
these words wont even touch you
none of them have so far
so this way
only my dear friends will cheer me on
hopefully i wont cause as much trouble
as i have seen you do
Although I am lonely
I was never completely alone
No matter what's happened
You aren't completely alone
So stand up tall broken heart
turn your face to the sun
take some time for yourself
remember your good luck
go outside and play
roll around on the grass
listen to the crickets
watch the birds fly overhead
tune your dial to your radio station
sing someone else's words
in your car, driving with the windows down
in the cover of darkness
sunglasses or not
get all your frustration out
If you aren't feeling well
take some medicine
none of us are perfect
so be a little accepting
to the world that spins around
no matter where you are
get over yourself
figure out what you need
then you can go for it
complaining never solved anything
so why not play instead
turn on your senses
to the world around you
then see how hard it is
I know where I sleep
from here I'll dream
you know where you rest best
that's where you belong
Who cares if you don't need me
I'm still unbelievably awesome
Does it matter if I can't find you?
you're still desperately impressive
We are still Fucking Gorgeous
Although I am lonely
I was never completely alone
No matter what's happened
You aren't completely alone
Even now, you aren't alone
And now I know for sure
I was never alone
believe me when I say
You were always loved
