There are some horses running loose in my head
A group of school children
Some Chinese tourists
Tied to the couch with no past life to explore
Optimism must persevere
Of that I'm sure
Choosing a way forward
Can be so hard
I don't believe in my counsellor
Can't settle on a God
But if my brother can make it
Then why can't I?
Those with ideals may fail
But most don't even try
So I'm gonna
I'm gonna try
Speaking of a past life I may have spoken too soon
I feel as if I've known you
I've lived through this typhoon
Tell me how someone can roll out of bed
Shake their demons off and instead find another reason
To do it again
Choosing a way forward
Can be so lonely
I don't trust any of my teachers
They're all phoney
And if my sister couldn't make it
Would I bat an eye?
Those with open hearts may fail
Those with brighter minds might cry
But all this staring at a phone screen
Can't be all there is to life
Pain seems to wanna stay
And I'm not saying it's gonna be okay
But I just blinked and now I'm no longer a child
Despite the best intentions of our parents
A degree only made me more aberrant
If I blink again
I might forget your face
If I blink again
I might forget your face
If I blink
Again
