Somewhere Else

Remember “no talent, just too much time?” Well we’ve had all the time in the world now And what have we really created? Huh? Not a worthwhile thought, dream, scheme If no one cares and you can’t force them, yeah, that’s it It’s worthless We measured ourselves by potential The songs will write themselves we said We said we could do it, but then we didn’t There would be time, a whole lifetime to look ahead But now we’re older, wasted, tired (lazier maybe?) And no one gives a sh!t Current company included All that time thinking and what have we got? Thoughts, thoughts, and more thoughts But not a single finished product A million words to look back at, laugh at Then discard Bye bye Nothing new, nothing perfect Things already said in ways truly meant One good idea, maybe a few But nothing immaculate We’re nowhere near as good as we think we are So toss it out Like all the morons we ignore Beg for some new way Knowing conformity is the only way out The only way now To find any form of happiness But how can we be happy by giving in like that? By losing dreams and feeling nothing we want to feel Then we feel nothing but crying, stabbing in our hearts, souls Our very essence made false So send it all away for good and wait For someone else with different standards to toss it out And quickly remind us We’re just as awful as we figured we were It’s too late for me though It’s far too late to give up and go somewhere else
