the coward

I dreamed a dream, wished upon a star Danced through life, thought it'd all shake out But when my feet hit the ground, I took the money and I ran Across some great blue pond to a far, far away land In my room with a view, no golden hair to undo There's so much going on and all I can do is sway to a song Sway to a song God, I really hate this part I've been swimming in the dark You're the fool, and I'm the coward The coward The coward My window sill collects dust and my skin's starting to rust And what little I know, keeps me locked in this hold Oh but I believe, there's another life here for me It calls me in my sleep, but when I wake up I'm stuck In my room with a view, no golden hair to undo There's so much going on and all I can do is sway to a song Sway to a song God, I really hate this part I've been swimming in the dark You're the fool, and I'm the coward The coward The coward I'm too tired to try I'm too scared to jump There's too much on my mind, but I don't know what I want I'm too easily fooled by their tricks and their jewels I can't think for myself I'm useless, I'm useless as hell Hell, oh no God, I really hate this part I've been swimming in the dark You're the fool, and I'm the coward The coward The coward The coward
