Boy Who Has Everything

What do you give to the boy who has everything? His world is almost too good to be true What do you say when he's starting to let you in And you see he's better off without you? Sometimes I'm so cynical and self-conscious And sometimes I see that I'm bringing him down I stand in the mirror, hands in empty pockets And wonder why he even wants me around I just wish there was something he needs Some beautiful thing I could be To keep him from seeing the worst in me What do you do when the boy's always busy And you're on the side killing time 'til he calls? It's bad I get mad cause I want him to miss me And make amends when he has done nothing wrong We both got friends, but I'm no good at keeping mine He's got his people when he needs to talk And we both got dreams but I'm not good at reaching mine So part of me dreams about keeping him small I just wish there was something he needs Some beautiful thing I could be To keep him from seeing the worst in me So what do you give to the boy who has everything Now that you need him more than you knew What do you do when you finally get to him? And you see he's better off without you
