Random

I got a map with no roads, a pocket full of spare change A lemon rolling in the backseat, a letter with no name I took the train to nowhere, sat next to an old man He said "Kid, keep your hands open" and tossed me his last plan A dog in a red bandana by the bank on the corner A kid selling cracked sunglasses, laughing like it's a performance I found a peach on the sidewalk, still warm from the noon sun I bit into something sweet and thought "Well, there goes my plan" YOU NEED A DESTINATION! YOU NEED A FIVE-YEAR SCHEME! YOU'RE WASTING ALL YOUR HOURS ON A BROKEN, BORROWED DREAM! THIS RANDOMNESS IS POISON! IT'S A CAGE WITHOUT A KEY! YOU'RE SPINNING WHEELS AND WONDERING WHY YOU'RE NEVER FREE! One day rain, one day gold Somehow that feels like home One day lost, one day known I let the day unfold ROLL, ROLL, RANDOM! Take me where you go! I like not knowing! I let the weird things grow! ROLL, ROLL, RANDOM! I'll follow the unknown! The wheel is spinning, and I'm finally home! I spun the little wheel, watched it flash in my palm One day rain, one day gold, somehow that feels like calm If it all goes sideways, let it tip, let it turn Some doors open by mistake, some lessons take the long way home My mother called me crazy, said "You're throwing life away" I sent her a postcard with a picture of the bay On the back I wrote a message: "I'm not lost, I'm just in motion The map was never real, and the road is my devotion" You'll never have a legacy... you'll never make a mark A wanderer is just a ghost... a whisper in the dark One day rain, one day gold This is all I need to hold ROLL, ROLL, RANDOM! Take me where you go! I like not knowing! I let the weird things grow! ROLL, ROLL, RANDOM! I'll follow the unknown! The wheel is spinning, and I'm finally home!
