How far will candy take me?
What if the movies make me?
How come I still feel lost at home?
The joy of little things
Coffee cups and ukulele strings
Why do I lean on things I own?
Imagination gets me by, it always has, does, could
Friends, foes, partners being real, would that even be good?
I’m always up for making drastic changes just for fun
And still I feel my chances slip from slight to slim to none
Every time I think I’ll try
The venture always ends with
Why (why, why)
And then I cry
And when my eyes dry
I’ll start back at the beginning and I’ll think “maybe I’ll try.”
I keep my eye out for a way
To stop this spiral in its tracks today
I’m tired of the ride
If love means pain then maybe I
Don’t want it anyway
I don’t think I’d take heartbreak in stride
Imagination gets me by, it always has, does, could
Friends, foes, partners being real, would that even be good?
I’m always up for making drastic changes just for fun
And still I feel my chances slip from slight to slim to none
Every time I think I’ll try
The venture always ends with
Why (why, why)
Mmm, mmm, mmm
I need instructions
I need to wake up
Maybe I should just be wearing more makeup (wearing more makeup)
Does it take hours (hours)
Days months years (days months years)
To call someone a friend, I fear
I’ve been defining relationships all wrong
Imagination gets me by, it always has, does, could
Friends, foes, partners being real, would that even be good?
I’m always up for making drastic changes just for fun
And still I feel my chances slip from slight to slim to none
If I want to feel the world, why can’t I get out of bed?
Maybe I am better off in my head (head, head)
