Not For Nothing

I take down all these pictures of me

I don't know any of these girls

I'll perform the role that everybody needs

But I won't go backwards

And I don't know her

But you want me to be her

And sometimes when I fail

It feels like the big reveal

Don't, don't, don't

Pull back the curtain

No, I won't, won't, won't

Do nothing til I'm certain

That the girl you knew

The friend you had

The pullout couch

When it all went bad

The speech you made

And you raise your glass

It's not for nothing

So many places have been wrong for me

But I'll do anything and I'll do it well

And I can go to sleep at night

And know that only change is inevitable

Had a titlе for fifty weeks

And it almost was the death of me

And I'm morе than the bills I pay

And my friends don't care either way

Don't, don't, don't

Pull back the curtain

No, I won't, won't, won't

Tell you nothing til I'm certain

That the help you had

The scripts you pulled

The heartfelt love

Like a landfill

The staff revered

And fancy [?]

[?]

The social queues

The mistimed joke

The common folk

[?]

[?] scope

Find it cheap

The ways to cope

It's not for nothing
