So I look out the window,
and I feel the moonlight on my face,
I’ve been here before child,
but never with such easy grace.
It’s as if I know where I belong now,
no more searching for something beyond,
the light’s in the sky, out of reach,
and for once, I accept that’s where it belongs.
Not everyone gets to be an astronaut,
not every fool gets to fly a plane,
and you know, I’m happy for it to be like that,
and for my nights to be quiet, once again.
The memory is still there,
I’m pretty sure; it’ll never really fade,
in the middle of the night, hushed little whispers,
wondering if everyone else thinks I’m insane.
It used to be so much fun,
my innocent talk across the globe,
but like everything the end came,
but I was the only one who seemed to know.
Not everyone gets to be a warrior,
not every fool gets to be rich,
and you know, I’m happy for it to be like that,
and I promise I won’t complain or snitch.
So the clouds pass so softly,
like silent thoughts in my mind,
unaware of their own relevance,
impulses beyond sight.
I wonder what dreams really look like,
latent bolts of energy in the dark,
and if a heart is really broken,
where do the pieces go when it falls apart.
Not everyone gets to be a Romeo,
not every fool has a Juliet,
and you know, I’m happy for it to be like that,
I was born to be alone, and don’t you forget.
For I am the quiet one you don’t see,
that silent soul you never really knew,
you said you wanted to listen,
but you never really seemed to.
And the wind, I hear it blowing,
I feel the soft air on my skin,
alone by the window, but for once,
my smile is genuine.
Not everyone is perfect,
not every fool gets to cry,
and you know, I’m happy for it to be like that,
I never asked you to sympathize.
And I’m sorry that you don’t see,
what for everyone else is clear;
you’d defend the greatest evil,
kill the purest soul without a care.
Well I live for my Angel,
and for those who seek the truth,
yeah I might be naive but,
at least what I say I do.
Not everyone can keep a promise,
not every fool gets to blame,
and you know, I’m happy for it to be like that,
but for once, things have changed.
Yeah I’ve been proved wrong,
and I’m sure I will again,
but I never claimed to know everything,
I might be crazy but I’m not that deranged.
But I’m proud to be who I am,
a man of action not just plans,
when I say I’m going to do something,
that means I’m going to try as best I can.
Not everyone can be a victim,
not every fool gets to give themselves pain,
and you know, I’m happy for it to be like that,
because it’s never been my way.
I try my best as always,
I don’t always succeed,
but at least I know one thing,
my heart it no longer bleeds.
And you might think I messed it up,
forced it to end,
the truth is you never cared,
you proved it by what you said.
Not everyone can be together,
not every fool gets to belong,
and you know, I’m happy for it to be like that,
I’m alone child, and that isn’t wrong.
