Thread: When I Was Stupid

When I was stupid
I gave myself a name
When I was stupid
I wrote down everything I had to say

And when I was stupid
I gave up in the end
But when I was stupid
It didn't have to matter then

I wrote myself a page of perfect letters
That I'll never let set sail
I wrote myself a goodbye note
It said I hope you're doing well
But your time here was very short
I'm so glad I knew you before I fell

When I was stupid
I spent my time on pointless dreams
When I was stupid
Nothing was ever as it seemed

And when I was stupid
I didn't care to let you go
But when I was stupid
I was too stupid to truly know

I heard they tell you that I love you
I really hope it means enough
But I can't imagine words on paper
Would get you through when times are tough
If you ever feel misled enough to hate me
I'll understand

Because when I was stupid
I let the good things slip out of my reach
And when I was stupid
There was nothing new to learn or teach

Sometimes I'm still stupid
But I'm doing my best now
And every sober second
Is a second that I'll not let down
Cause I don't wanna be stupid anymore

Now this... is lyrical gold...

Lol. Indeed. Good job.
