  • What is this?
    It doesn't make much sense
    They sing it like a pop song
    You're capable of anything
    And I'm sure they meant
    You could be president
    Or you could just forgive me

    But I stopped caring what you think about me
    I gave up
    We're told we are capable of anything
    But you don't seem to think that you are
    Capable of anything

    Swung and missed
    I put my heart in this
    Mythical, holy, good guy
    I want so bad to be
    But I was weak and wrong
    And when I owned it all
    It only made you righteous now
    You get to blame your life on me
    But I stopped caring what you think about me
    I gave up
    We're told we are capable of anything
    But you don't seem to think that you are
    Capable of anything

    You are capable of anything
    But you don't seem to think that
    You could fly so low or sink so high
    That you could ever love again or even try
    That you could steal, or cheat, or kill, or lie
    But you might Writer/s: Benjamin Folds
