Songs I Wrote - One-Hit Wonder

Playing to an empty room
Fuck, I can't deal with that
I'd rather teach math
If I could fill the Red Rocks Amphitheatre
My spine would snap
I'd probably collapse and break my back
I don't wanna hear my song on the air
Radio
Number one smash
I'd rather be relaxed
Blaring through gyms, restrooms, department stores, TV ads
I'd have to hide or run right off the map
And now you sing along with a catchy chorus
The one that I'll be singing for the rest of my days
I'll try to write a song with a happy message
That goes "buh-bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, buh, bah-duh-buh"
To be unknown in obscurity is better than to rise then crash
I'd rather face the facts
It won't be so bad
But you know that now it's calling me
I fear my life has gone to waste
Wanted it deep within my heart
The feeling of being number one
You know that now it follows me
One day these things will all erase
I knew a wish would fall apart
Left me alone here in the dark
And now you sing along with a catchy chorus
The one that I'll be singing for the rest of my days
I'll try to write a song with a happy message
That goes "buh-bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, buh, bah-duh-buh"
And you know that something's haunting me
Now that my life has gone to waste
Dreamt of it since we were young
Having a song that's number one
You know that something's taunting me
I feel that I'm no longer safe
But when I lie with empty lungs
What will they say that I had done?
So now you sing along with a catchy chorus
The one that I'll be singing till the day that I die
I tried to write a song with a happy ending
It went "buh-bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, buh, bah-duh-buh"
