Not That Bad

We only have on life to live And constantly worry about Lifes curiously chaotic ways And some of us just want to get out And some just wait to get away Why pretend that what you have Isn't good enough for you? Why believe that you can't have What you want? Just take a look at what you have! Its not that bad! Its not that bad! I waited for you all day But you didn't come I know you wouldn't, why would you? For you what could I offer . . . How could I compare . . . To what you don't have? Why pretend that what you have Isn't good enough for you? Why believe that you can't have What you want? Just take a look at what you have! Its not that bad! Its not that bad! How could I . . . How could I . . . How could I possibly have believed That you could have wanted me? How could I . . . How could I . . . How could I possibly compare to her Whom you now want so bad? How could you . . . How could you . . . How could you have gained my trust so Just to throw me away, just to let me go? How could you . . . How could you . . . How could you have taken my Love and go? How could you know and leave me all alone? Why pretend that what you have Isn't good enough for you? Why believe that you can't have What you want? Just look at what you have! Its not that bad! Its not that bad! Why pretend that I am Not good enough for you? Why believe that you can't have What you want? Just take a look at me! Im not that bad! Im not that bad! Why pretend that what we have Isn't good enough for you? Why believe that we can't have What we want? Just take a look at what we have! We're not that bad! We're not that bad!
