dreamers

nobody showed you how to live?, me either, get a steady job, couple kids, act decent, but i've been on a ten-speed thinking about the time as the sun sets, like, what would i do different if i hit rewind and did it again?, i tried to figure it out but nothing was coming to mind, remembered all my mistakes, but the memories made me smile, i told the one that i loved that love would mean letting me go, even though i was afraid, you gotta do some things on your own, this one goes out to all the dreamers at sea, this life is only what you want it to be, and i want more, i want more, you go to heaven when you die, i'm betting, you're still with me on the line?, just checking, cause i've been making fast friends, late at night the kind when the sun sets, like, waking up and thinking honey why i do it again?, i came to in a cold sweat with a nosebleed feeling hopeless, thought i maybe might be dead til i got my pen sat down and wrote this, suddenly i felt fine inside a mind so full of ghosts, the darkest nights mean you see the stars the most, this one goes out to all the dreamers at sea, this life is only what you want it to be, and i want more, i want more, i used to knock on wood, i used to never curse, i used to think i could, control the universe, with my obsessive thoughts, and what felt like a prayer, i shouted to the sky don't let my family disappear, i used to feel alone, i used to not belong, but little did i know i had the power all along, the only thing to fear, is never being scared
