I stepped away from the plate I struck out I watched it float by Went to the back of the line Yeah it's hard to define when things go wrong Let it go My copper cup's turning green all alone I sit here exposed Numbed up and out on the road Now I know what it means to move along Sometimes I fantasize of happiness and following it through And I'll romanticize the accidents, the old in with the new But please don't worry, oh don't worry because some dreams don't come true for you I still think about it every day The chances that I'll never take I try not to exaggerate About the way it makes my knees weak, heart ache, palms sweat, short breath Things come undone What have I done What have I failed to do Some permanent hue of feeling languid in lieu of the old tried and true A wounded soul Been looming silent in my primal state Been feeling the weight These sullen eyelids that stay Go ahead, clear the slate and lay me down Let it go Sometimes I fantasize of happiness and following it through And I'll romanticize the accidents, the old in with the new But please don't worry, oh don't worry because some dreams don't come true I still think about it every day The chances that I'll never take I try not to exaggerate About the way it makes my knees weak, heart ache, palms sweat, short breath Things come undone I still think about it every day
