spoken a buddhist on the subway tells me that what you want is rarely if ever what you need and of course i argue the point like a completely self righteous idiot sung i was looking for perfection and it found me right between the eyes all this time we spent in bliss you know like all things it has to fade away the devil says beware cause when you ask you might get what you want the devil he may care when you ask you might get what you want spoken so now i spend most of my time waiting for things to happen letting the wind take me where it will sung only when it s done do you lose the veil you get so blind you never see the light coming down the tracks it keeps me hanging from a thread devil drives the train devil pass me by this is the happy song i wrote for you you know this is the happy song i never wrote for you and after all this time and after all the lies never dreamed you would seem to me little more than an earthly waste of time after all these precious opportunities that i had to set things right dissolve like regret in heaven they do and she said anata no namae o yuki ni kaku keredomo nani mo iwanai this is the happy song i wrote for you this is the happy song i never wrote for you after all this time and after all the lies never dreamed you would seem to me little more than an earthly waste of time after all these precious opportunities that i had to set things right dissolve like regret in heaven zen buddhist heaven
