Roaming the campground up by the lake where we swam We were hunting for snakes But we couldn't find them Surrounded by nothing But the nothing's surrounded by us But it's just me in my room With my eyes shut Oh, when I was seventeen My mother said to me "Don't stop imagining, the day that you do is the day that you die" Now I pull a one-ton carriage Instead of the horses grazing the lawn And I was having fun We were all having fun My brain can think faster than I can I'm not fast enough Who is there to talk to That won't lock me up? At least God doesn't judge me by the thoughts that aren't mine The snakes I couldn't find I don't want to find Oh oh oh Oh when I was seventeen my mother said to me "Don't stop imagining, the day that you do is the day that you die" Now I pull a one-ton carriage Instead of the horses grazing the lawn And I was having fun We were all having fun Oh, when I was seventeen My mother said to me "Don't stop imagining, the day that you do is the day that you die" Now I pull a one-ton carriage Instead of the horses grazing the lawn And I was having fun We were all having fun
