At school in late September

When fall was falling into view

A sea of blue lockers and I would fade into the hue

I wanted to try her

I wanted to divide her

But she would never give me something I could do

I tried to prove to you that I'm alive

But you passed me by a million times

And I don't know why, don't know why

As long as I remember

These words were written on my sleeve

Some caustic reminders of all the love I tried to leave

With you, disconcerting 'cause my lungs were hurting

Driving and shaking, looking for something to believe

I tried to prove to you that I'm alive

But you passed me by a million times

And I don't know why, don't know why
