Born of gentle birth In the suburbs nothing hurts You were surely destined to find your place among the greats But all your easy days made you chronically plagued by indecision Your bright potential dimmed into a glow You drift through life just finding ways to cope The one thing you're sure of, you are cured of when your home OH you spoiled dove, what happened to the dreams you'd spoken of?
