We Are The Few Lyrics - Streetlight Manifesto

Dear 

Mr. Gepetto: 

I hope this finds you well. I wrote this letter 

Because we miss you here in hell. 

And now I know it's hard 

When you don't know what to think, 

And every single smile is a faux and you're waking up. 

You might try but you won't get by 

'Til you're crucified for all the things you try to do. 

Yeah, I don't care if you sink or swim, 

And I don't care how you hold it in, 

As long as you don't bother me 

With all the things I don't bother you with. 

Nine times out of ten you might be right, 

But what about that time you know you're wrong?

You sing that same song, 

And everybody smiles but they'll never get along. 

I'm trying and 

I'm trying and 

I'm trying and 

I'm trying to 

Let go, 

But everybody's going down tonight. 

We are the few that won't say nothing right; 

We are the footsteps fading into the night. 

Nobody cares, and nobody stares with 

Such conviction and I say: 

I never wanted this; 

No one ever wanted this, 

But they gave it to me so I might as well be proud of it, 

And I don't know where we went wrong; 

All I know now is I gotta do something right. 

So come clean; 

No one should have have to live with the things you've seen. 

But you're living anyway! 

Well I stop the car and put her in park, 

And I step outside, god I hate this part 

When I see what I saw what I thought 

Was a life that was more than a chore; 

I'm just doing what I need to get by.

I don't care if you leave or stay 

But you might as well split, 'cause it's 

Not the same as it was 

When we said our last goodbye, 

And if you want the truth: 

I was hoping one of us would 

Pass away 'cause it'd be much easier then; 

We could all get together and think about when 

We were young, we were dumb, we were numb, but in love 

And I'm done so I'm sending out this letter today. 

I'm trying and 

I'm trying and 

I'm trying and 

I'm trying 

To let go; 

But everybody's going down tonight. 

We are the few that won't say nothing right; 

We are the footsteps fading into the night. 

Nobody cares and nobody stares with 

Such conviction and I say: 

I never wanted this; no one ever wanted this, 

But they gave it to me so I might as well be proud of it 

I don't know where we went wrong; 

All I know now is I gotta do something right. 

This has been the best night of my life. 

This has been the best night of my life. 

I could have lost my life, 

And I would have lost my mind, 

But now I'm fine, 

And I find 

That this has been the best night of my life. 

This has been the best night of my life. 

(I still can't believe they had the heart to apologize) 

This has been the best night of my life. 

(I still can't believe they had the heart to apologize) 

I could have lost my life, 

And I would have lost my mind, 

But now I'm fine, 

And I find 

That this has been the best night of my life. 

And as the day fades, 

No one investigates. 

Nobody answers when she calls his name. 

Another victim, somewhere in a shallow grave; 

I want to hold her and tell her, "It's not your fault." 

And as the day fades, 

No one investigates. 

Nobody answers when she calls his name. 

Another victim, somewhere in a shallow grave; 

I want to hold her and tell her "It's not your fault." 

It's not your fault 

We are the few that won't say nothing right. 

We are the footsteps fading into the night. 

Nobody cares and nobody stares with 

Such conviction and I say: 

I never wanted this; no one ever wanted this, 

But they gave it to me so I might as well be proud of it. 

I don't know where we went wrong. 

All I know now is I got to do something right. 

We are the few that won't say nothing right; 

We are the footsteps fading into the night. 

Nobody cares and nobody stares with 

Such conviction and I say: 

I never wanted this; no one ever wanted this, 

But they gave it to me so I might as well be proud of it 

I don't know where we went wrong; 

All I know now is I gotta do something 

Right.
