It's not a song about old friends,
Backstabbers, leeches, or cretins
It's not about you, and it isn't true

It's not a song about family,
How the lack thereof can be crippling
It's not about, and it isn't true

These songs are getting smothered
By the consideration of others

It's not a song about another girl,
An old flame I'd like to rekindle
It's not about you, and it isn't true

It's not about our conversations
(don't worry, I'm not taping)
It's not about you, and it isn't true

Some stories can get so dull,
So you get a little personal

Lately, I've been afraid,
Maybe I say too much
Maybe the ones involved are feeling the ru
-- while I play dum

I'm sure this sentiment
Could come off as arrogant;
To assume you're all hung up
On such triflin' melody
It's not you -- it's me with whom I'm concerned
What have I done?
