Last night I dreampt of graduation day. I was working at the Office of Information Technology in a big school. As I stood in the hall, Elliott brought me a surprise. It was my cap and gown. The rest of the dream is a blurr, but I remember having to stand outside on the bleachers, in front of the crowd, with my graduating class. My cap fell off, but I got on the bleachers anyway, leaving it behind.
My class sang our graduating song. I wondered why they chose a song as sad as this for such a happy occasion.
It must have been that my alarm clock was set to radio. Doesn't it just figure, that at one moment an event can seem so meaningful but turn out to be completely random.
Why do you have to be a heartbreaker,
When I was bein' what you want me to be ?
Suddenly everything I ever wanted has passed me by.
I think I tried to pick up your cap for you, but got trampled by the crowd. :-\
