Well I set myself up big time this time
With the notion that you try your best then
Everyone wins
But nothing ever goes that smoothly
And it won’t end like a movie
Where the good guy always wins
Until you figure out
A way that you can live without
Stories with happy ends
Everyone I know is trying to get by
Fighting all the half-true lies
Nobody can win
They fill you up with expectations
Innovations and predictions that can’t
Possibly fly
Cinderella’s waiting tables
And the princess never did wake up
That’s how it begins
Until you figure out
A way that you can live without
Stories with happy ends
Well everyone I know is trying to get by
Fighting all the half true lies
Nobody can win
Nobody can win
Nobody can win
