Madness man, he wasn't there
To keep the beat and laugh it off
He checked himself once or twice
And everybody told him how amazing he was
I don't really get it, I don't really see it
I can't say that I really accept it at all
But who cares, I mean, who?
I live a day to day way and here I am
I have arrived and I've never really gone anywhere
People have run me down, and brought me to my feet
I still can't seem to see what they see
Fall in love with me
Stay in love with me
Convince me I'm worthy of you
And the love you're pummeling me with
It's about me, for now
Because me is all that I've retained
I feel good, for the time being
I bet you could help me to feel even better
With your edges and your wit
Your glasses, your skirt
The squeeze that tantalizes anybody
I've heard it time and time again
From the closest, the furthest
Whoever, anybody, no matter in it
Let's start trying to believe everything they say
I'm looking pretty decent
With some green on my side
I work like a dog without much to show
But at least you know I can handle anything
So I think I'm ready
I'll never be perfected
But this is the closest I've ever gotten
And I really think I'm ready
I'm set to meet you, to impress you
To show you I can be the best you've ever had
I'm good, I try to be good, and I take no shame
Because I know that I'll never be good enough
So accept me, know me
And become aware of all I have to offer
The love I have is still a bit tender
But it's ready to get back to work
And if you're waiting for someone new
I'm already here for you
And all that I need
Is a signal.
