but you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable

I was always the good friend...

At least that's what they all tell me... I must say I don't trust people that much anymore. The world's too cold... But I have those ones I trust!
After some stuff that happened to me, after losing my faith in people while raising my faith in love, overall I'm not safe!

I'm still that dreamer... I still believe in the simple things... I believe the sun will always shine upon our heads in the next day! So I try to live life fully...
I came to think our life's like a subway track... our destiny is already there... you have your life line and you must follow it! Sometimes we need to switch tracks, but we gotta follow that line!

I always wanted to have someone special...
I had, actually... once... that no longer exists and gladly, I can say I'm free of something I thought it was great... but in the end of the day, it wasn't... there were too many changes.
It was in the subway, with a friend, that I painted the picture of how I see my life years from now!

Years from now I'll have my own apartment, with my mini library and my mini office and that cozy armchair... After a long day at work, I'll go grab a bite in some place, then probably visit a bookstore and buy some books I'm interested in or a movie... then walk through the city lights having the troubled thoughts I usually have...
And then go home... and if somebody rings my doorbell at 23 PM, he or she will probably catch me having a capuccino reading one of my many books...
And being the cool guy I always was...

That vision makes me feel good... I feel relieved...
and it makes me feel kind of lonely...

Through the past 4 years I learned a lot...
I learned that good friends are like family... and you must keep the ones you love!
I learned that family is really important... and you notice that harder when you start to say goodbye to the ones you're related to...
And I learned that love is built... that love at first sight is rare...

As I think those things, I ask myself:

Am I switching cars in my life line? What's happening to the man I knew?

Maybe that changes... and then I'll switch tracks again... maybe I'll really get my special someone...
Or maybe I'll keep on following the track I'm in now and 60 years from now I'll catch myself thinking:

"Yeah... I was always the good friend..."
