Disappointed - Bob Mould

Disappointed Lyrics

Well, I'm sorry you're disappointed
But times they change and so did I
Standing still and getting nowhere quicker
Well, it seems I didn't have to tryBut now I've found a reason to move on
And you won't miss me much now that I'm gone
You don't seem disappointedThe three years I went to college
Didn't make much of a difference to me
Made me feel so safe I didn't have to think
About the things I really wanna beSo don't get caught up in that trap
They'll make you feel like you've been trapped
Into owing them your gratitude and all the other platitudes
That make you feel important when you goBut now I've found a reason to move on
And you won't miss me much now that I'm gone
You don't seem disappointed'Cause when you're gone, somebody else will come along
And take your place
It doesn't make me feel any less a member of the human race
This ain't no raceWell, I'm sorry you're disappointed
But I don't feel that way today

I am free from all the crazy games you played
I am free from all the things you sayAnd I don't mean to make a mockery of the things
You thought I'd say when I left, but I'm not disappointedAnd if I felt the urge to say you're wrong
Well, I just hold the words inside and laugh
And you'd be disappointed, so disappointed, so disappointed
