For Things That Haven't Come Yet |
I saw the best minds of my generation |
Passed out in their prime |
Cuz we were waiting for a suitable time for waking up |
I must have looked in your eyes |
About two thousand times |
But I never saw a sign |
No nothing to say, this was a time for giving up |
And if somehow you still believe in love try not to let it hurt so bad |
Don’t you know that you always |
Had everything that you need |
If there’s something in the stars above the sights |
Our sentiments, and masses of gasses |
I would swear, it still wouldn’t have drawn itself to me |
But why should it? |
I had a dream about parking lots, |
And shopping malls, and lines |
The only words anyone could muster |
Were just lies, and lies, and lies, |
And am I ashamed, am I ashamed |
To engage in these infantile notions of pain |
When we wake up it’s always the same |
Though I hope everything is okay |
I took a walk in your shoes |
You know that I got the blues |
Thinking bout how there’s this wall |
They made climbers of us all |
Till we eventually fall and |
So you talk about your ideals |
Like they’re not how you feel |
Like they’re a dream you hold inside |
An old plan left unrealized until the day that it died |
Well if you’re waiting on the world to change |
Don’t waste you precious heart |
Oh, I know that you are too |
Smart to think that it will |
That sure is one way to live |
But one day something has got to live |
And if you’re not ready |
Well you’re sure to fancy yourself, oh so still |
So don’t try so hard |
For things that haven’t come yet |
Don’t live your life like it’s already gone |
Don’t listen to the closed set |
It’s nobody, just trying to make them self feel better with a song |
