The magic words
I wish they would've been
I wish they could've been enough
The magic words
That's what you thought they were
You thought you could utter a single sentence and fix the entire problem
"You really need to lose weight!"
Oh! Okay, thanks for telling me
Cause before you, I had no idea that was what I needed
"OMG! You're getting really big."
Oh! Really?
Huh! I didn't notice
"Come on just go to the gym!"
"Just change it!"
Okay
Now that you've said those magic words, I'll get right to it.
Your Magic Words
You think I haven't heard them before
You think I haven't heard them enough
You think I haven't told them to my own damned self.
Your Magic Words
Oh! How easier it all would've been, if they were really magic
Except, all they ever really are, is words.
