When I was in kindergarten I got my first wrong problem Red ink on the white page Wet tears run down my face Alone in darkness All of the kids were at recess Ms. Parsons came in Stooped down by my side And she said You're not a failure And you're not stupid You are a cool kid I know you, you can do this Moved back to my home town I'm so much older now Car just got repo'd I guess I'm goin down that road Applying for a job At an automated kiosk I'm gonna stock groceries I hope that no one sees That I'm a failure Yeah I'm a loser I'm not a cool kid I don't think I can do this If I stop dreaming Then I'll start dying And I might never win again But God knows I won't stop trying Somewhere in my mind There's a distant dream And I cannot seem to shake The hope inside of me Oh this hope inside of me No I cannot let it be Somewhere in my mind There's a distant dream What if I never win What if this is all there is Lying on my death bed Only friend is regret They say the failures Precede every victory But if there's a winner The failure of others is necessary Am I deluded Should my dreams be uprooted Should I stop Should I get a real job Somewhere in my mind There's a distant dream Somewhere in my mind There's a distant dream Shouldn't complain How kids want to be older I wanted to be older Wanted to be older And so I cannot complain Cuz I want to be younger I want to be younger I want to be young again What is a failure What is a loser And what is coolness I know you, you can do this If you stop dreaming Then you'll start dying And we might never win again But God knows we won't stop trying Somewhere in my mind There's a distant dream And I cannot seem to shake The hope inside of me Oh this hope inside of me No I cannot let it be Somewhere in my mind There's a distant dream Shouldn't complain How kids want to be older I wanted to be older Wanted to be older And so I cannot complain Cuz I want to be younger I want to be younger I want to be young Forever
