"Naïve" Lyrics

Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside
Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it (bout it, bout it...)

Everyday in school was a war
judged and sentenced for what I wore
Insecurity and hatred was a law
from the benches to trenches to the corridors
first year I ran the gauntlet
second year you're the one we taunted
third year they laughed and pointed
and I never said none but I swear I wanted

Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside
Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside

I found so many answers but I still have no questions
My feet are feelin tired but my legs they are restless
I'm eating and I'm chewing but I just can't digest it
I'm playing round with things I know I just shouldn't mess with
(I'm a homesick du-dude who can't deal with domestic)
Situations getting thin still I keep stretching out
in hopes of one day landing in some place
where I can park my hat and deal with the mundane
I hit so many bumps my shockobsorbers they must be enormous
every chance I get I floor it
still I'm moving like tortoise
shit is getting too retarded
harder to breath, I know it's gonna work out
but maybe I'm just beeing naive

Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside
Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside

Sometimes she's so naive gets upset about everyday stuff
I say that's the way of the world, believe me I'm calling their bluff
But I'm getting old, i feel jaded, you still got heart and I love it
Feels like my vision is faded, choked by the biz in the budget
And I don't wanna be bitter at thirty you know
holding on is way better than letting it go
and it seems way better just letting you know
ain't no inspiration bigger than this any more

Let me be who I wanna be
Let me be who I am, let me be naive
Let me be who I wanna be
Let me be who I am, let me be naive

Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside
Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside

Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside
Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside

Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside
Don't laugh at me it's making me cry
I know I shouldn't care about it but it hurts me inside
