I had everything planned out I had it all designed But fate can be a cruel girl When she isn't on your side I'd been living for the moment As if the future's not defined It's like my plane's about to take off Buy I might not make the flight Does your fate get carved upon your palm upon the day that you get born? Is it spelled out in the stars, is it beating in your blood? Do they print it in the papers, and then they leave it in your will? It's written on the land here, under the illusion of free will? Oh oh oh Is this what I'm meant to be? Have all my efforts here been wasted? Is this my destiny? I've been going it alone now So long it's left me blind It's like she left me at the altar But she never said goodbye Because I thought I'd see some signal Before I reached the end of the line It's like my train just left the station Leaving all my things behind Oh oh oh Is this what I'm meant to be? Have all my efforts here been wasted? Is this my destiny? Don't tell me it's just coincidence When I can hear the real world rhyme Serendipity's just reality whispering That you got the words right When I could spend every godsent moment Trying to change the track And then a black cat could cross my path Then a black cat could cross my path A black cat could cross my path And send me back Oh oh oh Is this what I'm meant to be? Have all my efforts here been wasted? Are all my dreams just history? Oh oh oh Is this what I'm meant to be? Have all my efforts here been wasted? Is this my destiny?
