lyrics
Why's it always gotta be
That you want what you can't have?
Always trying to find
Something you can't put your fingers on.
Never satisfied with the plans you had in mind.
Nothing follows through in the way that you
Wanted it to.
And I fear that it's a fatal flaw
To have our world reduced to things we can use
And out eyes blind with colors money can buy.
But it doesn't have to be
An ending tragic like you see.
Yeah, cause everything is right,
Though there's still a ways to go.
Even when I die,
Though there's no heaven in my eyes,
I'll know that this is home--
Misguided paradise.
And I hope it's not my fatal flaw
To think there's something special
About it all.
And that your whole life's a waste if you don't breathe it and see it.
