lyrics

I’m suddenly taken back to that time
When I waited for you underneath that blue sky
Passing by me in an instant
Slipping from the depths of my imagination
Hey, can somebody tell me what’ll happen next?
Say, tell me how to make it go on just another day
Looking right into your eyes
As I walk away from you one last time

I’m suddenly taken back to that time
All the summers that would bore me out of my mind
Didn’t I quit playing piano?
Out of habit tapping on my desk to play the notes
Hey, can somebody tell me what I’m gonna do?
“Hey, anything besides music should be okay”
Everything will be okay

If you took my heart and drew,
A single note just straight on through
No it wouldn’t disappear believe me
Whatever I do it just won’t disappear
It’s still right here

But I’ve got it wrong again
I don’t understand
I don’t really care though
Not about humans or truth or the world or this life I hold, I don’t really care, no!
Seeing things in black or white, isn’t right, it’s just an excuse right?
One thing’s for sure tho
Everythng is your fault

I’m suddenly taken back to that time
Growing old was the only thing on my mind
Knowing that someday I would die was like a stab in the chest, though I never understood why
“Hey do you know what you’ll be doing one day?”
Passing by the years I knew what I would do one day
I’d be doing nothing at all

All your positivity, ignites a hatred deep in me
Knowing I’ll never be happy
Knowing that I’ll never be enough, can’t you see?
It haunts my every single waking dream

But I know you know I’m right
Though we’re different we’re humans deep inside
But without love, or salvation, or kindness, or comfort though, is it really life? no!
Crying when the radio plays a sappy note, pathetic yes I know
One thing’s for sure tho
That much is your fault

I’ve tried but I still don’t understand why
Why is it we have to fight to live our own life
Why I can’t live off doing the one thing I like
I don’t care if my lyrics are-n’t quite right
I don’t really care, no

‘Cause I think I’ve got it right
Yeah I know I’ve got it right
Yeah I know I’ve got it right?

But I’ve got it wrong again
I don’t understand
I don’t really care though
Not about humans or truth or the world or this life I hold, I don’t really care, no!
Never giving a reply, just philosophic lines, is just an excuse right?
Not that I care tho
Everything is your fault

Even I had dreams long long ago
Now it doesn’t feel the same as it did before
I’ve told you time and time again
It didn’t really matter if nothing came of it, you know
You do know, I know you know, now I can’t do it anymore

So now you know why

So now you know why I don’t do music anymore
