Everyone Is a Target

Just stop and listen for a minute; I can't remember.
One time I stopped thinking about this; I can't remember.
Sometimes I feel all I've got are stupid dreams.
At least they're for real and right now that's good enough for me.

For every time an hour goes by I wish one hundred times.
If I had more guts I probably give it a try.
Sometimes I feel all I've got are stupid dreams.
At least they're for real and right now that's good enough for me.

I wish that I knew what I wanted So I could teach myself to live without it.

For days now I've listened to myself
Did I forget how to recognize myself?

Surprised at the thought that I could be wrong
I've felt removed from you for incredibly long.
And coming home to empty rooms again
If these walls could speak, I'd say nothing to them.

I know it's not a good excuse
But I was busy sleeping while you were soaked in misery.
That's why I didn't notice you
But now I'm awake enough to see that you should be happy.
Not just content with me.

This is my song for all the bitter words I've said to you.
Can I ever make it up, recognizing apologies just aren't enough?
This is my plea to you.

Up until now I haven't had to miss you
Because I've been away doing something else.
So I never enjoyed the rain
Because every time it did I'd just walk away.

Meeting you that night,
Is the best thing that's happened to me all my life.
