(Story about a girl)
(Story about the world)
Suddenly I'm something I'm not
I'm something that you bought
Was it something I said
My friend
Little girl are you tripping on this
Are you tripping all over it
You better come up for air
A Story about a girl
A Story about the world
Are you waking up slowly
Nothing but lonely
Are you waking up
Holding, holding your breath
Are you looking for something
I promise you one thing
I promise I'll always, always
Be there
Baby girl, stand up and fight
This is not some paradise
It's just where we live
Finally you think you're alright
Then it eats you up alive
You better get used to it
A story about a girl
A story about the world
Are you waking up slowly
Nothing but lonely
Are you waking up
Holding, holding your breath
Are you looking for something
I promise you one thing
I promise I'll always, always
Be there
With all my faith
And all my heart
And all those simple things you are
I know
It's stuck inside your head
You're alone
You better get used to it
And I know
The feeling has to end
You're strong
It sucks you in again
And you're lost
You can't make any sense
This world
It tears you limb from limb
And hold on
You're nothing but the best
Are you waking up slowly
Nothing but lonely
Are you waking up
Holding, holding your breath
Are you looking for something
I promise you one thing
I promise I'll always, always
Be there
With all my faith
And all my heart
And all those simple things you are
With all my faith
And all my heart
And all those simple things you are

DreamofGlycerine all I have to say to you is shut up and grow up. Really though do you realize how immature you look sitting there ranting on some person you dont even know, cause of something as small as a grammatical error?
This site is designed for people to give their oponions on what a song means to them, one of the keywords is them. Who are you to say if they are right or wrong, you dont know how they think and feel. Also just because someone has not been listening to the band from day one, doesn't make them a fan. Trend whore? Thats one of the stupidest things I have ever herd someone say, my sister says stuff like that and shes twelve! So just do us all a favour and leave people alone.feel free to express your oponions on a song or band but not on other people,That is not what this site was created for.
People who slander away on a keyboard ranting at others looking like there competeing in the special olympics, even if you win your still retarted! It doesn't make you a bigger or better person enough said!
As to every one else, keep listening to Our Lady Peace. They are an amazing band!
BTW those lyrics are wrong.
