I Never Thought It Would Happen This Way

No time for speech and sentiment,
Put soda on the stain,
That my burns cause,
Put myself in debt again,
I'm hanging on a string,
Unpayed and burned out.

It's way too bright outside again,
I can't see through the rain,
I'm fighting for the bad guy too much to my disdain,
I think I should be leaving soon,
I know I can't stay here,
I pour myself another as I contemplate my fear.

I never thought it would happen this way,
It seems there's too much that I've known outside,
Don't tell me you don't see these things that you restrain to be,
I just wish I could dream inside my head and create the scene.

I lay back down and come to terms,
I'm laughing in my sleep,
No need to wake up,
Alarm clock blinking 5:05,
No coffee in the pot,
When will the time stop?

I'm taking water living here,
I'm falling underneathe,
Put me in a lifeboat and send me out to sea,
I'm waiting for this stone to roll,
I'm pushing all I can,
Just how the hell did I get here?
Yeah so much for my plan.

I never thought it would happen this way,
It seems there's too much that I've known outside,
Don't tell me you don't see these things that you restrain to be,
I just wish I could dream inside my head and create the scene.
