about

Ryan Marth wrote this long-ass song about a girl he met online in the freshman years of the internet. I didn't know him then, but I can only assume he had an online experience like I had: 1.He met a girl on AOL. 2.He met said girl in person. 3.He regretted 1 and 2.

lyrics

I think I need to find a different point of view
Another weekend, I'm a mess
I think I need to hear a little more from you
I can't take this loneliness

And so I'll wait for your message to come through
Don't you know your e-lover's missing you?
And I'll take anything that I can feel
Though I doubt if ever I'll find something real

I'm still searching for someone to make me smile
I'm spending all my hours online
And I'm still waiting but it's got to be worthwhile
I've waited such a long, long time

And still I wait for your message to come through
Don't you know your e-lover's missing you?
And I'll take anything that I can feel
Though I doubt if ever I'll find something real

I'm still waiting but I think maybe one day
I'll find somebody just like me
I've got no new ideas and nothing smart to say
And my soul is dying of ennui

Well things have changed
As I'm sure you know too well
Fuck my MTV, I just want my AOL
And this machine keeps me hidden like a cloud
As I cry here, just trying hard to laugh out loud
Just laugh out loud
