If I Could Catch A Rainbow

The sky is a graveyard full of stars
They cry and they light up on mars
Can't see them in LA at all
Kinda wish they'd shown up a little more

Maybe this maybe that
Maybe just cared a bit more
I wouldn't have wasted adolescent time
At the door
Waiting for
Them to come
Home

If I could catch a rainbow
Don't you think that I would have
If I could swim and stay afloat
Don't you think I wouldn't have drowned

If I pulled up my big girl pants
Then maybe I wouldn't be sad
But darling life doesn't work
Quiet like that

Coins at the bottom of a dirty fountain
Wish after wish
and then wish after wish
Until they're all forgotten
Whining and crying
passionately dying alone
No wonder she could never reach
the pot of gold

Oh what a wonder that life could be so narcissistic
Wouldn't it be nice to call happiness so simplistic

If I could catch a rainbow
Don't you think that I would have
If I could swim and stay afloat
Don't you think I wouldn't have drowned

If I pulled up my big girl pants
Then maybe I wouldn't be sad
But darling life doesn't work
Quiet like that
