Crawling Out

A tale as old as time, a boy meets a girl And they fall for each other's spell They walk the lines of love and naiveté Until what they have falls apart They can't believe they fell for something Everyone's done before Is this what life is, an unending spiral Downward all the way home This life it isn't mine, but it could be This life it isn't mine, but it could be He moves away and she stays back And builds herself a happy home They never talk to each other again 'Cause that's just the way it goes He sits alone on his twin size bed Wishing his life was further along She has these feelings of deep regret Wondering what it could have been This life it isn't mine, but it could be This life it isn't mine, but it should be I fantasize about a life that isn't mine To realize how lonely I am But listen closely, 'cause underneath I'm crawling out oh so slowly I'm crawling out I'm crawling out I'm crawling out I'm crawling out
