No Accident

Somebody told me once that I accidentally took the train the wrong way
But it was no accident
I paid the fare to take me there
I saw the world going by each day
And it was no accident
And I know that there's something that's gone wrong
And I know that the place I'm in is not where I belong
One day I looked around and I wondered how everything I found turned out this way
But it was no accident
I stood in awe at what I saw, at the long path of a lifetime gone astray
But it was no accident
And I know that there's something that's gone wrong
And I know that for all this time I've been helping it along
The life that I designed is best defined inside my mind in negative
And it is no accident
The things it isn't, the things I didn't, the dreams, ambitions that I'll never live
And it is no accident
And I know that there's something that's gone wrong
And I know that the place I'm in is not where I belong
There's a film that loops inside my head
Of all the things I wish that I'd been doing instead
But I waste my time and I don't know why
Someday I will be dead but I was never alive
And you better be careful
It's no accident, no no no
Sometimes I think about how hope and doubt can't live without each other
And it is no accident
Sometimes I try to not ask why, some truths I'd rather not discover
And it is no accident
And I know that there's something that's gone wrong
And I know that for all this time I've been helping it along
There's a film that loops inside my head
Of all the things I wish that I'd been doing instead
But I waste my time and I don't know why
Someday I will be dead but I was never alive
And you better be careful
It's no accident, no no no
There are times I feel like I'm not myself
Like I'm starring in a movie about somebody else
You can see my face, but it isn't me
Cause I swear to you I'm someone that I never will be
And you better be careful
It's no accident, no no no
Somebody told me once that I accidentally took the train the wrong way
But it was no accident

Just Being There

I lie awake in bed at night
And try to excise from my mind
The monster underneath the bed
Of all the things you haven't said
It didn't use to be this tough
Just my being there was enough
I wonder what it is you do
To fight the monsters haunting you
Take a pill or have a drink
Or do you just try not to think
Do you pray to God above?
Or is just his being there enough?
It's hard to believe what no one will tell you
It's hard not to let the voice of fear
Be the one to deceive, the one to compel you
When it's the only voice you can hear
I don't know if you're not listening
And I don't know if you don't care
And I don't know because you're missing
And I can't find you anywhere
All the priceless things we make
Have got such stupid ways to break
And all the useless little tricks
Just make it harder still to fix
But I don't know what else to do
Besides just being there for you
It's hard to believe what no one will tell you
It's hard not to let the voice of fear
Be the one to deceive, the one to compel you
When it's the only voice you can hear
I don't know if you're not listening
And I don't know if you don't care
And I don't know because you're missing
And I can't find you anywhere
It isn't perfect anymore
Or it's just harder to ignore
That it never was before
I will never be set free
From the possibility
Of just how perfect it could be
I don't even need your love
Just your being there is enough
It's hard to believe what no one will tell you
It's hard not to let the voice of fear
Be the one to deceive, the one to compel you
When it's the only voice you can hear
I don't know if you're not listening
And I don't know if you don't care
And I don't know because you're missing
And I can't find you anywhere
No I can't find you anywhere
I can't find you anywhere
No I can't find you anywhere
I can't find you anywhere
You know my wildest fantasy
Is you just being there for me

It feels a little strange
The person I've become
Let's go on a drive today
The place I come from
I have built up the life I have now
But it's calling me back there somehow
When I left there I wasn't set free
Cause it's still inside me
There were dreams that I had
There were plans that I made
And when I went away this is where they all stayed
This is the place where I come from
We knew everyone's name
We knew everyone's face
We knew everyone's past
We knew everyone's place
This is the place where I come from
The light of the sun
Is broken by the trees
And all around the leaves begin
To tremble in the breeze
The time I remember is gone
And the people I knew have moved on
But the place has not yet ceased to be
It's still inside me
There were dreams that I had
There were plans that I made
And when I went away this is where they all stayed
This is the place where I come from
We knew everyone's name
We knew everyone's face
We knew everyone's past
We knew everyone's place
This is the place where I come from
