The Template

I don't know if this is real
But this is not the way I want to feel

I'm choosing from the menus
Aligning left and right
And I build life on the template
But it never feels quite right
And I try to think about it
When I'm lying here at night
But you're waiting for a message
And I don't want to fight

I just want to know if I'm on the right road
But I can't tell
I just want to know if I'm singing the right notes
But I can't tell

I can't tell if this is real
But this is not the way I want to feel

I'm posting pretty pictures
And writing pithy things
And I'm following your fortune
With the arrows and the slings
And it's all so entertaining
But who's pulling all the strings
There's no time to think about it
Just this feeling that it brings

And I'm so afraid I'm missing out on something great
But I can't tell
I could skip all this pain if the road ahead was plain
But I can't tell

I just want to know if my life is my own
But I can't tell
I just want to know if my life is my own
But I can't tell
I just want to know if my life is my own
But I can't tell
I just want to know if my life is my own
But I can't tell
I just want to know if my life is my own
But I can't tell
