So, so, so there's this girl on a hill with a kite strapped to her back
She's crying, \"come on, hurry, blow;
Pick me up and throw me skywards.\"
She's got a prayer in her mouth and she's done all of the math
She's got a feather for a heart, but it still doesn't guarantee her
'Cause not everything you run to wants you
(It's just not just it's not just it's just wrong)
And not everything you love will love you
(It's just not just it's not just it's just wrong)
So there's this boy on a hill with a hammer in his hand
He's shouting fire in the sky, \"come on, turn me into something special.\"
And then a storm whips up and the heavens are alive
And he's wearing copper shoes but it still doesn't guarantee him
'Cause not everything you run to wants you
(It's just not just it's not just it's just wrong)
And not everything you love will love you
(It's just not just it's not just it's just wrong)
It's the tragedy of dreamers like me and you
(It's just not just it's not just it's just wrong)
Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ahh (2x)
'Cause not everything you run to wants you
(It's just not just it's not just it's just wrong)
And not everything you love will love you
(It's just not just it's not just it's just wrong)
It's the tragedy of dreamers like me and you
(It's just not just it's not just it's just wrong)
(4x)
It's just not just it's not just it's just wrong
