"Everybody Knows" lyrics

Everybody knows
That you can't fly from the tree tops
Everybody knows
But I still try so I might drop

And when I look back
I won't regret spreading my wings
Though I might crash like a stone to the ground
But on my way down
I was flying for a while

Everybody knows
That you can't breathe underwater
Everybody knows
But I still try and maybe later

I'll be gasping for air
And though you don't care at least I have dared
To pull treasures from an ocean of sound
And on my way down
I was drowning with a smile

Everybody knows
That you can't love, love forever
That you can't change, change the weather
And when I look back
I won't regret giving my heart
Though it might break into pieces in time
At least you were mine
If only for a while
Now everybody knows
