"We Can Be Anything" lyrics

I was crying at a party
Which is not unusual of me
I was sitting all alone
I heard somebody say, "Hello"
I looked up to see a girl
She said, "What's wrong?"
I said, "The world."
She said, "Well, what's so bad about it?"
I said, "Everything about it."
She said, "Don't be so defeatist."
I said, "Well, don't be so naive. It's a simple fact that nothing matters and life will go on in my absence."
She said, "A life devoid of meaning is a life of total freedom."
I said, "I don't get what your point is. My life is still completely pointless."

She said, "Open up your mind. Maybe in this life..."

We can be anything
(We can be anything)
That's awesome, don't you think?
(That's awesome, don't you think?)
We can be anything
(We can be anything)
That's awesome, don't you think?
(That's awesome, don't you think?)

So I was heading back home
Feeling a little less alone
I was sitting on the train
Mulling it over in my brain
That's when I saw somebody crying
Out beyond my silver lining
I said, "Why are you upset?"
She said, "Well, nothing makes sense."
I said, "Hey, don't be so defeatist."
She said, "Well, don't be so naive. It's been proven space is exponential, so this is all inconsequential."
I said, "If it's inconsequential, then there's infinite potential."
She said, "Well, what's the fucking purpose? It's all just still completely worthless."

I said, "Open up your mind. Maybe in this life..."

We can be anything
(We can be anything)
That's awesome, don't you think?
(That's awesome, don't you think?)
We can be anything
(We can be anything)
That's awesome, don't you think?
(That's awesome, don't you think?)

We can be anything
(We can be anything)
That's awesome, don't you think?
(That's awesome, don't you think?)
We can be anything
(We can be anything)
That's awesome, don't you think?
(That's awesome, don't you think?)
We can be anything
(We can be anything)
That's awesome, don't you think?
(That's awesome, don't you think?)
We can be anything
(We can be anything)
That's awesome, don't you think?
(That's awesome, don't you think?)
We can be anything
That's awesome, don't you think?
We can be anything
That's awesome, don't you think?
