Sometimes you gotta wonder why nothing good ever lasts You pinch the wick smoke goes up, man its gone so fast I woke up this morning to a blank page and cup of coffee Now the cup is empty and the page is full Theres daffodils in the kitchen on the table We water them every single time were able But theyre dying, spinning away, far too fast Nothing good ever lasts Why does everything die
When everyone tries so hard Why does everything die When everyone tries and tries and tries and tries and tries a little harder Its easy for me to fall asleep in bed I close my eyes and count backwards from ten But it happens so fast, the sun shines through the window And Im running out my door
