I separated my heart from my head
To feel out what's inside
Everything was wrecked. Marni knew it. She also knew that her head had gone and done what her heart knew was wrong. She had humiliated Joanna, but most of all, she had humiliated Will.
I don't like what I see so I say
Good night
Marni fell into a troubled sleep, but soon dreamed of something wonderful.
Don't wake me 'cause I'm dreaming in color
Black and white is not my friend
Candy coated figures only in my bed
Black and white was reality. Ruined relationships and everything. In her dream, Marni saw that it was sunny out, and that Will was marrying...Joanna. Marni realized that it was as it should have been.
I've never been so deep inside a shadow
I've never been so insecure of what I know
Marni had felt so injusticed by Joanna waltzing in and capturing the hearts of her family. She hadn't been able to let go of high school. Now, she wished that she had been able to.
I've gotta figure it out
I need a story to tell
Where's the feeling I long for
I've gotta figure it out
Where was the rush of victory over exposing Joanna? Where was the feeling of justice? As she woke from the dream, Marni lay in bed, wishing she could fix everything.
Before I lose you love
She didn't want to lose Will. She didn't want him to lose Joanna.
Big city streets are calling me out
The busy keeps me high
L.A. had been such a change from Ridgefield. She had forgotten the trauma that high school had caused.
Well this quiet town is wearing me down tonight
She had felt important in L.A. Back home, she was still Will's little sister. She was tired of Ridgefield.
Well I know that I should stay here for a while
Listen to the sound
Of my shaky heart
Looking for gold in the ground
Marni had thought that digging up the high school time capsule would produce gold, but it had only wrought pain and suffering.
Marni also knew that running back to L.A. wasn't the answer. She had to figure out some way to fix everything.
I've never been so deep inside a shadow
I've never been so insecure of what I know
It's not okay to make him wait
To make you wonder why
I can't hold you close and give you hope
That this will be all right
When she went downstairs at her dog's insistence and found Joanna in her wedding dress, eating out of the fridge, Marni's heart went out to the bride-to-be.
I wanna make it right...
Marni wanted to fix everything she had ruined.
Gotta figure this out
I need a story to tell
Where's the feeling I long for
I've gotta figure this out
Before I lose you
Before I lose you
Before I lose you love
As Marni watched Will and Joanna exchange vows, her heart swelled and she knew that everything was going to be great. She had finally figured out that high school was over, that it would always be over, and that she and Joanna would be the best of friends.
