Fifteen years old picking out the same old clothes
While these posters are wallpaper for those with the same goal
She'll try out on on the day after today
And she dreams of the 5k

The calendar's set stone
Now cracked in half

Dwyer said you look talented to me
Join the team and get up at five with babes in briefs
Candy bars, metals, trophies and stressful days
Still she dreams, dreams of 5k

Dwyer asked, "why did you give up on me?"
"I've got these dreams and no idea what I want to be"
Different place fast turn over has gone away
But still she dreams of 5k

The calendar was set in stone
Now cracked in half but not unknown
Records broke yesterday
If only there was still a 5k

    Im pretty sure this is about Kim.

    heres an excerpt from an interview with her: "In high school I focused on track. My plans back then were to run throughout college and then compete in the Olympics. Yeah… didn't work out as planned. I made it through one year at Penn State and realized I had other things in mind. I do miss running though."

    So the whole running thing does fit.

    But who really knows except Matt and Kim
