Lyrics
It's the way I call and nobody's home
The way I go out and wind up alone
And we started with 22 people
Or maybe it's the way I've learned to fight and argue
About anything, it doesn't matter with who
It's finally beginning to sink in
Don't want to admit it, but I should be thinkin'
Na na na - maybe it's me
Na na na - maybe it's me
I'm starting to wonder...
Maybe it's the way things never go my way
I've never had a lucky day
The world is out to get me
Or maybe it's the day, you said "I'm leaving, goodbye -
No, it's not you, I gotta go, don't know why"
But there's something in your eyes as you leave
You're parting sweet sorrow, I shouldn't believe
Na na na - maybe it's me
Na na na - maybe it's me
Well I'm starting to wonder, maybe it's...
Na na na - maybe it's me
Na na na - maybe it's me
I'm starting to wonder (starting to wonder)
Yeah I'm starting to wonder
Maybe it's the way, you said "I'm leaving, goodbye -
No, it's not you, I gotta go, don't know why"
There's something in your eyes as you leave
You're parting sweet sorrow, I shouldn't believe
