Lyrics

I was born with a great mind
And great minds think alike
But great minds think a lot
Great minds overthink the kind of thinking only the drink can stop
Grab the vice, pop the top, and settle
No more sober
Eyes glaze over
And no more fear
Let my mind run free as it all becomes clear
They say distance make the heart grow fonder
But now you're far away I wonder
Is that true?
Was in love with the image I projected of you?
Infatuation, I see through
And we always seem to resort to old ways
The games we played, were so much fun
But how things changed
And how we've aged, how we became
Two individuals, nothing alike
On different paths
Like, what would have happened if we hadn't crossed paths that night?
But that's the easy path with the least reward
And it's never been the easy path that I walk
Now we cheesin' chalk
But it's never been the easy path that I walk
I (ooh) talk to the man then
Ask how they've been
They say the same old thing
Used to knock for the man then sometimes ring
These days there's nobody in
It's not personal, it's worse
We all got jobs to work, we earn and burn it all
Repeat the process
Then search for something purposeful
My words are merely merciful
I'm asking what the answer is
Maybe it's just the way it goes
Maybe there's something after this
They say everything could level out
And this is all just part of it
I accept that truth, and bask in it
That's why they call me the Daydreamer
Over there the grass is always greener
To be kings and queens we eager
The way that the pendulum swings is deeper
Baby I've got to look deeper
Day dreamer
Over there the grass is always greener
To be kings and queens we eager
The way that the pendulum swings is deeper
Baby I've got to look deeper
Baby I've got to look deeper
