Maybe Video (MV)

Say no to drugs
And yes to school
And maybe to your drunk ex boyfriend
Who's dead in the swimming pool

You were lighting fires
In my formative years
In the same back yard as always
And through my first day-old beers

And if you still wear my t-shirt from the music festival
I want it back so I can feel this is an equal exchange
And as much as it can still be good and it can still be fine
I think I have an allergy to change
So get the hell away from me
Can't you see I'm trying to be free?

Go ahead and rise above me
I won't hold you to the promises you made
Just watch the fire engines cry as they roll by
And babe don't you just love a parade?

And if you still wear my t-shirts from the music festivals
I want them back so I can feel this is an equal exchange
And as much as it can still be good and it can still be fine
I think I have an allergy to change
So get the hell away from me
Can't you see I'm trying to be free?

All I want from you is sympathy, sweet sympathy
All I can ask from you is sympathy
All I want from you is sympathy, sweet sympathy

Can't you see I'm trying to be free?
I'm trying to be free
