A song I wrote hope you like it's about my childhood
At one you seemed to love me all the pictures we looked happy,
Two I got a brother and rarely saw my mother,
Three, I was a nuisance but I barely even knew it.
Four you just ignored me and my little pleas for ice cream

What happened to that love we had?
When we were all really glad,
We acted like a family,
But now we just watch TV,
There’s nothing here
And nothing there,
We’re spiraling out to nowhere.

Five you didn’t notice me you were always watching TV,
Six was just a nightmare I never knew I was there,
Seven I was nothing I was always sitting on my swing.
Eight, well, just meant nothing you wouldn’t bring me dancing,

What happened to that love we had?
When we were all really glad,
We acted like a family,
But now we just watch TV,
There’s nothing here
And nothing there,
We’re spiraling out to nowhere

Nine nothing really happened we didn’t even go campin’,
Ten was just a mistake I started to feel true hate.
Eleven was like seven but I wished I was in heaven,
Twelve I ripped out my hair I didn’t notice you there.

What happened to that love we had?
When we were all really glad,
We acted like a family,
But now we just watch TV,
There’s nothing here
And nothing there,
We’re spiraling out to nowhere

Thirteen was annoying when you started to acknowledge me,
Fourteen I was craving for the attention I just couldn’t get,
Fifteen I almost ran away ‘til you sent me to cascade,
Sixteen is where I am, and I feel like I’m four again.

What happened to that love we had?
When we were all really glad,
We acted like a family,
But now we just watch TV,
There’s nothing here
And nothing there,
We’re spiraling out to nowhere
