Keep Your Stick On The Ice

Take a deep breath,

think about what you said.

Bring it back again

and realize what it meant.

It's just so hard here pretending

that everyone is perfect,

that everything is worth it

like it used to be.

I really wonder what happened,

I thought people never changed.

we skated schoolyard steps

and on the lake when it froze.

Now I'm just cynical

and everybody knows.

I used to laugh

but then it got old.

Now I'm just cynical

and everybody knows.

Where did the voices in my head

come from?

I swear it's all news to me.

I really wonder what happened,

I thought people never changed.

I really wonder what happened,

I thought this would never change.

we skated schoolyard steps

and on the lake when it froze.

Now I'm just cynical

and everybody knows.

I used to laugh

but then it got old.

Now I'm just cynical

and everybody knows.

You'll all throw

your wish in the well

but I'll keep mine a secret.

My body's soaked and raw.

I'm too tired to think

yet nobody cares at all.

we skated schoolyard steps

and on the lake when it froze.

Now I'm just cynical

and everybody knows.

I used to laugh

but then it got old.

Now I'm just cynical

and everybody knows.
