I was young I was just a boy when you told me dreams really do come true

But I wanted something different I always wanted something different than this

Now I've grown and I found out that what you want you've got to take for yourself

but I search in the wrong places I always search in the wrong places for them


Speak loud but you never want to listen Scream out for everything you're missing

You want it all but you never want to work for it


If love is just a lyric we all sing along to bite your tongue do as you are told

to make it easier for you to write this down When time is running out why won't you say it?


This sort of thing it happens all the time so you close your eyes, pretend that things are fine just like everything is perfect, just right

Things have changed and I'm on my own And I thank the Lord I wound up alone

because it makes me sick to see this It really makes me sick to see you like this


Call it what you like but just leave us out of it

This new change, it's for yourself

So take back what you said You're not fooling anyone

Your new life will find us well When you're all by yourself

it's too late
