Pirate Ships & Fairy Tales
I really wish I could be like Peter Pan
I think that says a lot about who I am
Flying through the stars, just me and Tinkerbell
Never getting old as far as I can tell
But some days I feel like I've lost the thrill
My bones are fragile and I've lost my will
I have no home
No metronome
And all I know
Is the unknown
I'm running out of time to kill
My meals consist of mostly pills
All I hear is monotone
My welcome here is overgrown
I can't stay
I really wish I could be like Goldilocks
She always seems to know just what she wants
Knowing when to say not quite or that's just right
Not worrying about some costly oversight
But instead the options flood my brain
A hurricane of thoughts in vain
What if I'm wrong?
What if you're gone?
What if my song's too short or long?
My scattered brain's my ball and chain
I've ascertained that I'm to blame
This marathon from dusk to dawn
Is too much, so I've withdrawn
I can't stay
Once upon a time we could go anywhere
We would steal pirate ships and still have time to spare
We found some treasure troves, we were billionaires
This is our happily, happily, happily ever after
I really wish I could be like Robin Hood
Robbing the rich and hiding in the woods
A bunch of furry creatures in my brotherhood
Confident that I'm doing something good
But instead I'm just a selfish mess
I keep to myself, more or less
I stash my gold
In my household
My stranglehold
Is sevenfold
I plan things out like a game of chess
But I confess that it makes me stressed
I'm cold and bold
I need control
It's too much
So I fold
I can't stay
Once upon a time we could go anywhere
We would steal pirate ships and still have time to spare
We found some treasure troves, we were billionaires
This is our happily, happily, happily ever after
Once upon a time all of our dreams came true
We picked the furthest star for our rendezvous
We don't need anything else, just me and you
This is our fantasy family, hopeful reality
Absent of apathy, danger, or tragedy
This is it, happily, happily ever after
I think that says a lot about who I am
Flying through the stars, just me and Tinkerbell
Never getting old as far as I can tell
But some days I feel like I've lost the thrill
My bones are fragile and I've lost my will
I have no home
No metronome
And all I know
Is the unknown
I'm running out of time to kill
My meals consist of mostly pills
All I hear is monotone
My welcome here is overgrown
I can't stay
I really wish I could be like Goldilocks
She always seems to know just what she wants
Knowing when to say not quite or that's just right
Not worrying about some costly oversight
But instead the options flood my brain
A hurricane of thoughts in vain
What if I'm wrong?
What if you're gone?
What if my song's too short or long?
My scattered brain's my ball and chain
I've ascertained that I'm to blame
This marathon from dusk to dawn
Is too much, so I've withdrawn
I can't stay
Once upon a time we could go anywhere
We would steal pirate ships and still have time to spare
We found some treasure troves, we were billionaires
This is our happily, happily, happily ever after
I really wish I could be like Robin Hood
