Best Laid Plans

from The Best Laid Plans by Dan Kemp

lyrics

I'm getting restless 'cos my best laid plans are going nowhere
I'm stressed and and i keep feeling like I'll be a failure
Been thinking about what life is, and what it means to me
But it'll just keep happening anyway 'till i die and I'm set free

I've realised that life is what you make it
And I could photosynthesise or grow some balls and take it
Pretty much anywhere that i want to go
but for my hyperactive mind everything's too slow

In some ways I'm quite sorted right now
And I'm pretty comfortable
But that's the problem I feel stifled and choked

I suppose I never really fell far from the tree
I'm my fathers son in every way and he want's to be proud of me
But the plans that he made when he was eighteen
Fell down by the wayside but those are still his dreams

I hope in all my ramblings i can help to explain
Just a part of how i feel in case you feel the same
I'm sure I'm not the only one in fact I bet there's loads
of people out there who are feeling fucked up scared and alone
