Last night I had the most boring dream It went on and on forever it seems And I could have sworn it was real I could've sworn that the light flickered on when I threw the switch That's how you check When I woke up I was still pretty bored When I woke up I was... still... pretty... bored But I could've sworn this was my life I could've sworn I was born and I loved and I'm alive Am I wrong? Somewhere, someone is thinking things about me And I, I, I can't understand why I don't want to be a pedestrian I want to be king Just for a while, just to see Last night I had the most dreadful thought Am I the sum of the things I've bought? And how could I live with myself? How could I live with myself if the power went out? What would I do? Somewhere, someone is thinking things about me And I, I, I can't understand why I don't want to be king, I'll stick with pedestrianism
It just seems easier, and safe. I know, I realize Around every corner, more beauty lies I know I realize We extend our arms beneath infinite skies Oh no, what can I do? If it's a mid-life crisis at twenty two Does that mean I'll never see forty five? I know, I realize Around every corner, more beauty lies I know I realize We extend our arms beneath infinite skies Oh no, what can I do? If it's a mid-life crisis at thirty two Does that mean I'll never see sixty five? Last night I had the most dismal night There was nothing I could say that would make things right But I could've sworn I was smart I could've sworn that my brain was as big as my heart Was I wrong? Somewhere, someone is thinking things about me And I, I, I can't understand why And I, I, I can't understand why And I, I, I can't understand why
