Poems and Lyrics?
It seems fashionable to post lyrics on websites today, especially among the 18+ crowd (of which I still can’t seem to shake thanks to my fit in the latter portion of the 18-25 demographic). Since I absolutely despise those who hide behind dreams rather than take risks, I’ll post a favorite.
Just a little advice for those with ears to hear:
Guster – Two Points For Honesty
If that’s all you will be, you’ll be a waste of time
You’ve dreamed a thousand dreams, none seem to stick in your mind
Two points for honesty
It must make you sad to know that nobody cares at all
I want to be where I’ve never been before
I want to be there and then I’d understand
Know I’m right and do it right, could I get to be like that
I’ll know what I don’t know with nothin more to gain
Will I get better or stay the same
I find I always move too slowly
Can’t lift a finger, can’t change my mind
I never knew till someone told me that…
If that’s all you will be, you’ll be a waste of time
You’ve dreamed a thousand dreams, none seem to stick in your mind
Two points for honesty
It must make you sad to know that nobody cares at all
And all the people who’ve seen it all before
And all the people who really understand
Know they’re right, and have done it right, could I get to be like that
I’ll know what I don’t know, it’s harder everyday
Can’t lift a finger, can’t hurt a fly
I’ve found I always move too slowly
One things for certain, I’m insecure
I never knew till someone told me that…
If that’s all you will be, you’ll be a waste of time
You’ve dreamed a thousand dreams, none seem to stick in your mind
Two points for honesty
It must make you sad to know that nobody cares at all
Nobody cares at all
They never care at all
Buy the Guster CD Lost and Gone Forever. The song So Long is a great introduction to this one. They play well together.
