There's a price you will pay when you're on top of the world
|
Oh, when everyone wants to be your friend or companion
|
There's a fine line between your own heaven and hell
|
Oh, when everything goes your way you still feel abandoned
|
|
Sometimes, nothing¡¯s better than something
|
Sometimes, you¡¯re better off lonely
|
|
Why is it when times are good, everyone sticks around
|
But when things start to go the other way,
|
They split and forget you
|
My own philosophy has been good to me
|
I try to stay to myself and don¡¯t get caught in the shit storm
|
|
Sometimes, nothing¡¯s better than something
|
Sometimes, you¡¯re better off lonely
|
And my airplane is taking off slowly
|
|
Most of the time I really don¡¯t mind
|
It¡¯s pointless to waste all of my time, thinking about this shit
|
I spend most of my days trying to unwind and forget about it
|
|
I still worry if you¡¯re ok
|
I still wonder if you¡¯re the same¡¦
|
|
Remember when times were good and so simple-minded
|
And then somewhere along the way we lost all connections
|
When you strip away, all that¡¯s left is a guilty conscience
|
If I took a guess, I would bet you think this song is about you
|
Don¡¯t you, don¡¯t you, don¡¯t you
|
|
Sometimes, nothing¡¯s better than something
|
Sometimes, you¡¯re better off lonely
|
My heart is stranded and frozen
|
And my airplane is taking off slowly
|
|
Most of the time I really don¡¯t mind
|
It¡¯s pointless to waste all of my time, thinking about this shit
|
I spend most of my days trying to unwind and forget about it
|
|
I still worry if you¡¯re ok
|
I still wonder if you¡¯re the same¡¦
