Something 01:53
I don't know what lies on the road ahead, but I know there must be something I don't know what I'll do once I get there, but I know I must do something Cause something is who I am, and something is who I could be Something is who you are, and something is in my dreams I don't know how I'll figure it out, but I know I'll think of something I don't know who you think I am, but I know you must think something Cause something is who I am, and something is who I could be Something is who you are, and something is in my dreams I don't know, no, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

I’m so bored I’m writing a song on how bored I am I’m so bored I’m writing a song on how bored I am Woke this morning, and to my surprise Everything was just the same Got some cereal, had to compromise Oh, what a pain Life can be I’m so bored I’m writing a song on how bored I am I’m so bored I’m writing a song on how bored I am Went to work, it’s the same old story Same old boring stuff All I can say, that I did last weekend Was nothing much Oh what a pain life can be Oh Same old story, oh same old me Oh what a pain nothing can be Oh Same old nothing Same old nothing I’m so bored I’m writing a song on how bored I am

I feel like a firefly surrounded by the dark I’m a little scared and my light won’t go far I don’t have a hand to hold on to So how can they let go I feel like a doctor who can’t heel a soul I try to dig them out but I just make a deeper hole I don’t have the strength to pull them out So I just fall in I don’t know how It’s bringing me down How can I rise when I let others fall I am without I can’t figure out How can I run when I let others crawl I feel like a castle without a queen or king I’m empty inside and I can feel its sting If the pen is mightier than the sword Then why am I bleeding I feel like Sherlock without a single case No one to save, no one to chase If I can’t outsmart them Then why am I breathing I’m in the dark There’s dying souls I’ll shed my light, I won’t let go I’m an empty space A worthless hero Burn my fears and call me Nero I won’t let the lost bring me down

I don't know what you want for your birthday But nothing says I'm a cheapskate like a song Thanks for keeping me well fed, and always putting me to bed I guess I was a pain all along Thanks for all the advice half the time I never took And I know it sounds cheesy, but here it is World's Best Mom goes to you, it's true Congratulations, you win I didn't know what you wanted for your birthday But nothing says I'm a cheapskate like a song Happy Birthday anyways, hope you had the best of days Happy fifty third, to Mom
