Getting Over

I could live inside a daydream
Let my imagination flow
And realize success within my own mind
And no one else would ever know
But my dreams they all escape me
And I always end up here
It seems reality is always such a hard line
And destiny is charted out by fear

And it’s hard getting over
What’s so easy to get around
And it’s so hard growing older
When all the answers are too profound

I could promise you forever
Make my life an open book
Believe and trust you’d always stay beside me
And never take a second look
But the past comes back to haunt me
And mistrust it robs my sleep
It seems the only thing for certain is uncertainty
And the memories are all you have to keep

And it’s hard getting over
What’s so easy to get around
And it’s so hard growing older
When all the answers are too profound
