listen to a story
of somebody so bad
living invisible
trying not to make anybody mad

had to get going
float your boat away from here
dark is the ocean
with only one star

being all alone in the middle of nowhere
right out of the blue did you appear
saying stay
stay with me
stay a little longer

out there in the moonlight
the two took a look at the scars
it was different that the daylight
where there's a bandaid on who you are
sorrow exploded like a rainbow up in the sky
one of them cried i'm lonesome
i know you are was the reply

being all alone in the middle of nowhere
i don't think i'm prepared i guess i'm really scared
you can stay
stay with me
stay a little longer

this kind of a story
has no snazzy end
it's in the telling
you really need an ear to bend
so much for the story of somebody so bad
living invisible
trying not to make anybody mad

trying not to make anybody mad
trying not to make anybody mad

scared of the dark
in the middle of nowhere
i am not alone you know
if you are there
stay
stay with me
stay a little longer
