Idle Romeo

Markermorse

We live our desperate lives 
in search of our own alibis
of why we've failed or why we never tried.
Nobody realized 
that what you saw you fantasized
and that would be the life that you'd lead.
Noone expected you to leave.  Cause...

(Chorus)
Life's just a talent show
where people fall like dominos,
but I'll be there to catch you if you fall.
We all need subtle heros.
I didn't mean to make it you, though.
Your burden's tough enough to bear.
We all pretended that we dared
by letting you go.
Wo wo wo.

We live in paradise, 
but you settled for a sacrafice.
Some things are worth any price.
Now you just want to say, 
"Everybody go away
It's my ambition so let me pay."
We all expected you to stay.  But...

(Chorus)

As our life passes by
we never stop to wonder why.
why we fail to break down the walls.
Our excuse is we're nothing at all.

As I sit alone at night,
and I think about my life,
it's kind of hard not to laugh.
Cause I'm a casualty
of my own mediocrity
and the visions that I have.
It's hard to accept what you lack.  Because

(Chorus)
