    Story Behind the Song
    A song about growing up I guess. There's a line in it from "Finding Forrester." Hacks pay homage..artists steal.

    If you want the (non-mp3.com version of) the cd email me.

    Also..check out www.theforgottenmoment.com for some really cool photography. They did the cd artwork.

    Lyrics
    hopeless, a letter. return to sender.
    gleaned from the top of a dirty white paper
    i wish that i were more than a liar
    but maybe my heart’s just too tangled in blue

    wishing that life was easy & simple
    like wooden blocks, toy dolls, crayons, & cars
    i’ve grown a bit older, yeah i’m much more Mature
    i talk a bit less but i drink a bit more

    You say that I like to play the Victim
    In This Game
    You say that I like to be the Victim
    Well have it your way

    my mountain’s a Mirror staring back at me
    hiding a bottle of Pills that could free me
    another Bottle in my hand each sip forgetting
    all of life’s Problems and all of my Memories

    i’ll paint on a smile and lace up my shoes
    and walk to the gutter to dance away my Blues
    you’ll come and join me and dance by my side
    and whisper in my ear that it’ll be alright

    so here’s a Toast in a Paper Cup
    to all of our Excuses
    it looks like we’ve finally given up

    but the Worst is yet to come
    so get out of bed and sing your songs
    but no one will care to sing along
    cause we’re all Alone and our Days are done
    and we’ll pack up our things but there’s nowhere to run
    no there’s Nowhere to Run

    i’ll wake up one morning and get out of bed
    and stand up and whisper that Its Not So Bad
    no, things will get better and this life that i have
    will be a faded picture of Things Not So Bad
    i’ll sit in the corner with my head in my hands
    and cry out to nothing that Its Not So Bad
    i’ll wish i believed it i’ll wish it were true
    i’ll wish i could say that Its Not So Bad
