"I Wrote Holden Caulfield" lyrics

"I Wrote Holden Caulfield"

I loved you for the minute
When you decided to tell me the truth
I heard you, and that night I cried for you
I know that you're alone, just
Just like everyone else in the world
Don't tell me that things don't get better
'Cause sometimes they do

Sometimes they do
And I know they will for you

The days are getting shorter
And you're forgetting the things you just said
I'm hoping
Yeah, I'm hoping that you'll move ahead
I wonder if you'll ever come to realize what I always knew
That I wrote Holden Caulfield, and so did you

I wanna know, I wanna know
If you wanna give up
I wanna know, I wanna know
If you wanna wake up
I wanna know, I wanna know
If you wanna give up
I wanna know, I wanna know

When you'll stop dying
For what you've done
Stop crying
Oh yeah
For what you've done
For what you've done
For what you've done

It's only the past
It's only life
It's only life
And what have you done
Done that's so bad?
It's only life
So don't waste time

Why don't you stop crying
For what's done?
For what's done?
Why don't you stop crying
For what's done?
For what's done?
For what is done?
