[Carly Cosgrove - Rue the Day lyrics]
We treated
The fishbowl like the pond
I smacked against
The glass and looked beyond
In a landlocked state
I thought I saw the sea
Those days, I got away with leap, then look
Now when I open my mouth, I catch a foot
But maybe a foot is actually good for me
I thought I was God
I thought I was cured
That nothing could touch me
That I had nothing left to learn
I thought I was good
Secure and assured
I thought I was invincible
And I could put the stick in the spokes
So I put the stick in the spokes
Now everything hurts
I'm treating my new bowl like a lake
By my mistake, I stayеd inside the state
And I thought I'd makе
A Groundhog Day mistake
But I psyched myself for the trebuchet
That'll throw me over the bowl someday
And I wonder if still have what it takes
I thought I was God
I thought I was cured
That nothing could touch me
That I had nothing left to learn
I thought I was good
Secure and assured
I was rippin' CliffsNotes
And preaching like
I wrote the book
In a cursory glance
There's a lot to overlook
I was rushin' through it
And tellin' my friends to stop
Untroubled by the trouble
That I never knew I caused
'Cause I tried to do what
You can't do right
Decoding the layers of a thing called life
But which is the fairest of them all?
The Fabergé egg or the matryoshka doll
The Fabergé egg or the matryoshka doll
I thought I was invincible
And I could put the stick in the spokes
So I put the stick in the spokes
Now everything hurts
I was rippin' CliffsNotes
And preaching like I wrote the book
The fishbowl like the pond
I smacked against
The glass and looked beyond
In a landlocked state
I thought I saw the sea
Those days, I got away with leap, then look
Now when I open my mouth, I catch a foot
But maybe a foot is actually good for me
I thought I was God
I thought I was cured
That nothing could touch me
That I had nothing left to learn
I thought I was good
Secure and assured
I thought I was invincible
And I could put the stick in the spokes
So I put the stick in the spokes
Now everything hurts
I'm treating my new bowl like a lake
By my mistake, I stayеd inside the state
And I thought I'd makе
A Groundhog Day mistake
But I psyched myself for the trebuchet
That'll throw me over the bowl someday
And I wonder if still have what it takes
I thought I was God
I thought I was cured
That nothing could touch me
That I had nothing left to learn
I thought I was good
