[Intro: i wanna be a jack-o-lantern]

Lay in bed, dreamin' that maybe one day you'd be near
[Verse 1: i wanna be a jack-o-lantern]
Monday wasn't good at all
Walking past you in the hall
I saw you with your friends
Laughing and joking at someone's expense, I
I didn't know them, but I'm glad it wasn't me
'Cause I'm hopin' that maybe I can talk to you at least
[Verse 2: six days after christmas]
I can't get any closer
My friends told me, "Walk up," but I don't even know her
"I haven't had this feeling in a while," I told her
I know how it ends, maybe try when we're older
'Cause it's I hate you and you hate me
Your life's a little more private, but I'll still see
'Cause if you're all I need, you're all I'd be
But I can't see that much from here, I'll just see you in my sleep
