Fifth Wheel

Fifth Wheel

The boy looked down and asked me/

If I ever feel/

Like I no longer have a purpose/

Or like I'm just a fifth wheel/

"That's what I feel like/

They're just dragging me around/

You can never reach the sun/

With your feet shackled to the ground/

Everyone's changed for the better/

Everyone except me/

I'm just the same old jerk I always was/

And that's the way I'll always be/

It's never gonna happen/

At least not this way/

If I'm ever gonna change myself/

I'll have to start today/

This is how it has to be/

The choice is mine alone/

If I'm ever gonna change/

I have to do it on my own. /

So if I was to die tonight/

Would they even care? /

Would they even notice/

If Yamato wasn't there?" /

The boy bowed his head in shame/

His confidence was low/

The greatest friend he ever had/

Was the one he'd never know. /
