Modest Mouse - Impossible Somedays Lyrics

Modest Mouse Lyrics

"Impossible Somedays"

Oh, it's not enough just being here or just simply being alive
Although nothing stays the same the whole time
Well, everything is impossible if you don't even try to try
Although no one stays the same the whole time

All of those impossible "someday"s
All of those impossible "someday"s
All of those impossible "someday"s
Well, guess who stayed asleep every Monday?

Keep it down, keep it down
Keep it down inside your head, 'cause I'm still trying to sleep
Keep it down, keep it down
Keep it down inside your head, 'cause I'm still trying to sleep

Dreaming of impossible "someday"s
Dreaming of impossible "someday"s

The rocks become liquid, the liquid turns into a gas
And eventually the skies, they turn to glass

But guess who stayed asleep every Monday?
Guess who stayed asleep every Monday?
Dreaming of impossible "someday"s
Dreaming of impossible "someday"s

All of those impossible "someday"s
All of those impossible "someday"s
And I can be impossible "someday"s
All of those impossible "someday"s

I'm just fine, but I can be impossible "someday"s
I'm just fine, but I can be impossible "someday"s
I can be impossible "someday"s
I can be impossible most days
