Paroles de Alive

I don't know why I feel so alive
I wasted life, I've wasted time
I even tried to marry my mind
to something I can walk behind

I don't know where we're walking to
I've wasted life, I've wasted time
and every chance at something new
some talk of roads less traveled by

I don't remember the last time I tried
searching for chances, I've falling in line

I don't know when I realized
the poet gods weren't hopeful guys
the roads had all been walked before
the dreamers all drowned in the tides

wrote and misquoted, the words disappear
hid on the shelf now, to lock away my fears

and I know you want it like I do
to say you've come this far
all your photo opportunities
and glow-in-the-dark stars
I never knew the way I'd like it I wasted life, I've wasted time
and still I try to marry my mind
to something I can walk behind
and I try to marry my mind
give up the game, I fall behind
