Maybe Ill see you one day
Maybe you wont be so profound
Maybe youll know what to say..
Maybe Ill come back around

Once upon a time, as they always say.
Everything was calm on our proverbial bay..
Then one day you jumped ship and fell in love
and it seemed that I didnt fit anymore to your shove.
So I set sail on my own path of destruction
without any prior consent or instruction.
Twiddled my thumbs with the best of them
Stuck, hiding in bed like Brian Wilson
Crept up on in the middle of my own daydream
This reality that just makes me want to scream.

So now things dont look so bleak anymore
since that morning that you walked out my door..
Things arent better, but they are better than none
since it seems in this game of lies, you won
For now, Ill just wander the past in dreams
Where I can make it something other than it seems
Standing here on this desolate ground
You never know, I might come back around
