Dominoes

If I just said what I want to

The world would hang me by a string

If I just went where I want to

Some days I'd see it all

Some days I'd see nothing

If I just did what I want to

Well, I'd try to make the world a better place

...some days

But, if I could leave just when I want to

I'd leave the entire human race

Some days I'm running through a maze

Working so hard to get nowhere at all

And no one seems to understand

Why I'm so busy making plans

They think I'm setting up

Only to fall

Only to fall

If I could just be who I want to

I'm sure I'd never fall again

If I could just be who I want to

Well, I know I could be a perfect friend

But if I knew myself better

Then I'd know that I don't want perfection all of the time

Because being flawed is what makes me human

And forgiveness feels so divine, but...

Some days I'm running through a maze

Working so hard to get nowhere at all

And no one seems to understand

Why I'm so busy making plans

They think I'm setting up

Only to fall

Only to fall

Some days I'm running through a maze

Working so hard to get nowhere at all

And no one seems to understand

Why I'm so busy making plans

They think I'm setting up

Only to fall

Only to fall
