Alternative Plans

Stayin' up for days on end Then sleeping long enough Wasting all the cash on bets We're so disorganized Making up all our own rules And happy for a while Failing all the time No matter how it's justified Dreaming of the day We have some alternative plans Like holding hands And staring up And counting little stars Smart enough to know It's sort of just a little joke I'm sorry I never meant to be like this Charging all around the town And losing all the games Breaking up the rules we made We are so unsocialized Cheating on the brain We have no answers of our own Faking all the time No matter what our hearts desire Dreaming of the day We have some alternative plans Like holding hands And staring up And counting little stars Smart enough to know It's sort of just a little joke I'm sorry I never meant to be like this It's always in the cartoons Nobody really understands me My heart is made of cardboard I never thought you'd go away Stayin' up for days on end Then sleeping long enough Wasting all the cash on bets We're so disorganized Cheating on the brain We have no answers of our own Faking all the time No matter what our hearts desire Dreaming of the day We have some alternative plans Like holding hands And staring up And counting little stars Smart enough to know It's sort of just a little joke I'm sorry I never meant to be like this I'm sorry I never meant to be like this
