planes leave tracks across the sky
hope nobody's watching me
My actions are all predisposed
by magazines I'll never own
Jeans I can't afford to buy,
yeah, jeans I can't afford to buy
An d I am just the afterglow
of a girl you used to think
Someday, but she has gone away
But that girl has left and gone away
I miss you lots, I cannot lie
I will not tell you how I am
I'm tripping on these feet
Shoes I should have thrown away
They fall apart with each new day
Still I am just the afterglow
The girl you used to think
Someday but she has gone away
That girl has left and gone away
And all the dreams that they once had
For you and me and us and them
There is no us or even them
You are walking away from me
and I don't know what to say to you
To say I'm not okay with you
So I turn around and I walk the other way
To say that I'm doing okay
Believe me, I'm doing okay
So I call you up to say hello
and find out how it is things go
See how you have really been
since I have gone to be with him
Well, I wouldn't want you alone and sad
Since I am out here having fun
Believe me, I am having fun
And I am just the afterglow
of a girl you used to think
she has both left and gone away
I'm sure they're really kind of glad
They never liked me anyway,
they never liked the games we played
You are walking away from me
and I don't know what to say to you
To say I'm not okay with you,
so I turn around and I walk the other way
To say that I'm doing okay,
believe me, I'm doing okay,
I'm doing great without you
And we are just the afterglows
we used to think we'd know
Someday we have gone away
We have both left and gone away
Well, don't tell me about
I'm sure they're really kind of glad
They never liked me anyway
They never liked the games we'd play
And all the dreams that they once had
For you, me, and us, and then
There is no worse or even then
