It was a first new century
in 100 years
When I felt like I should cry,
I laughed away my tears,
The end of the millenium,
We waited a long long time,
To see the brave new world,
And the mountains we would climb,
The things, I've tried to comprehend,
As a child remain a mystery,
There's nothing I need to defend
There's nothing great about me
All I will ever believe,
Is the pounding of my heart though,
It doesnt answer questions,
Thats just the way it goes,
All I will ever have faith in,
Is the beating in my chest,
It won't predict tommorow,
Or give me eternal rest.
I didn't know it'd be cool
To be a detective
I had an unstoppable dream
And a life I wanted to live
Rather than making a plan
And waiting patiently
I'll remain here as a small child
Because no one else can save me
Even if I went to the end
Of the vast, expansive universe
They're things I'll never understand
There's nothing great about me
All I will ever believe,
Is the pounding of my heart though,
It doesn't answer questions,
That's just the way it goes,
All I will ever have faith in,
Is the beating in my chest,
It won't predict tomorrow,
Or give me eternal rest.
All I will ever believe,
Is the pounding of my heart though,
It doesn't answer questions,
That's just the way it goes,
All I will ever have faith in,
Is the beating in my chest,
It won't predict tomorrow,
Or give me eternal rest.
