Lyrics
There's a cemetery somewhere
For all your dreams that died
There's a million dusty headstones
Marking every unlived life
For the vagabond, the family man
The doctor and your parent's plan
The unexamined second chance
The old "give it one more try"
Here I am
Getting stoned and staying in
Thinking about the life I've lived
Or rather all the ones I didn't
I'm placing flowers on the grave
Of all the lives that could not wait
For me to make one damned decision
What a blessing, what shame
To have just one life to your name
What a blessing, what a shame
Hey what a shame
There's a ghost you met who haunts you
His name is old regret
No matter where you wander
He trails behind your every step
And the path you're on
It's moves along
You got no choice but to go
He says "for every step you take
There's infinitely more you won't"
Here I am
Getting stoned and staying in
Thinking about the life I've lived
Or rather all the ones I didn't
I'm placing flowers on the grave
Of all the lives that could not wait
For me to make one damned decision
What a blessing, what shame
To have just one life to your name
What a blessing, what a shame
Hey what a shame
What a blessing, what shame
To have just one life to your name
What a blessing, what a shame
Hey what a shame
What a blessing, what a shame
Here we are
Getting stoned and staying in
Thinking about these lives we live
Or rather all the ones we didn't
Placing flowers on the graves
Of all the lives that could not wait
For you and me to make decisions
What a blessing, what shame
To have just one life to your name
What a blessing, what a shame
Hey what a shame
What a blessing, what shame
To have just one life to our names
What a blessing, what a shame
What a shame
