A Place Just For Me



"Why don't you think
the way you should?"
Even if I was able
I'm not sure I would.

The mind of a dreamer
is the one I've got
I'd rather be me
than a social robot

"Why you gotta be this way?"
"Why you gotta read that book?"
"Why you gotta write that story?"
"Why you gotta get that look...?"

"You get that look in your eyes
like you're not even here.
It's like you've be in dreamland
this entire year!"

That's because I have
been in a whole different place.
With no map to follow.
No tracks to trace.

You can't find me there
and you never will
You're too attached to this world
and never sit still.

Honestly, I don't want you there
You'd be in my way
saying, "Stop using your mind!"
"it's nerdy and gay!"

But I don't care what you think
'Cause I'll always know
In the back of my mind
there's a place I can go.

I pity you, really.
You're stuck to the ground
as I float in the air
never to be found.
