Wimp. Wimp.

Kinda like a cloud I was up way up in the sky.
And I was feeling some feelings you wouldn’t believe.
Sometimes I don’t believe them myself and I decided I was never coming down.

Just then a tiny little dot caught my eye.
It was just about too small to see.
But I watched it way too long.
It was pulling down.

I was up above it.
I was up above it.
I was up above it.
I was up above it.
Now I’m down in it

Shut up.
So what what does it matter now.
I was swimming in the hate now I crawl on the ground.
And everything I never liked about you is kind of seeping into me.
I try to laugh about it now but isn’t it funny how everything works out.
I guess the jokes on me, she said.

I used to be so big and strong.
I used to know my right from wrong.
I used to never be afraid.
I used to be somebody.

I used to have something inside.
Now just this hole it’s open wide.
I used to want it all.
I used to be somebody.

I’ll cross my heart and hope to die.
But the needle’s already in my eye.
And all the world’s weight is on my back and I don’t even know why.
And what I used to think was me is just a fading memory.
I looked him right in the eye and said “goodbye.”

Rain rain go away.
Rain rain go away.
Rain rain go away.
Come again some other day.

Na na na na na na na na.
