about

In case you thought I was dead.

lyrics

As i walk along, I am on my lonesome
in a deserted part of town
there is no one, least no one conscious
but i must push on, yeah i must push on

and when the ocean comes to knock me down
i'll hold my ground
oh, and when the water comes to knock me out
I'll scream and shout, but i wont let up

Now, what i'm a gonna do,
i've got this thing to fix,
a problem to be solved, and i should do it
quick, but in the longer run
i guess i could just wait
i mean i could slow down,
exactly how long
do you have to work to change the world?
to get the girl? to be the hero?
to avoid making simple mistakes? to change your fate?
to make a difference?

Now, to be with all this time,
to be with all this space
expression on face
is confused
what, could i possibly do
with all the things that you
have put inside this
giant playground?

Now, to be with all this time
to be with all this space
i need to find my place
in side this
life, I don't know what to do
but i will make it through
because i see it's all
a play ground
you told me that it was all for naught
that's what i thought
but now i got it
everything you told me was a lie,
but that's alright,
because i got it

Now, not about feeling down
not about feeling good
it's all about what's under stood and
if you do just what you can
and disregard the plan
you'll find it's all a playground
