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 we're grown and I've found out that what you want you've gotta take for yourself
But I search in the wrong places,
I always search in the wrong places for them.
Speak loud but you never wanna listen
Scream out for everything I'm missing
You want it all, but you never wanna work for it.
And love is just a lyric we all sing along to
Bite your tongue, do as you are told
We'll make it easier for you to write this down
while 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.
Yeah, just like everything is perfect.
Just like, it's a cage 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.
Speak loud but you never wanna listen
Scream out for everything I'm missing
You want it all, but you never wanna work for it.
And love is just a lyric we all sing along to
Bite your tongue, do as you are told
We'll make it easier for you to write this down
while time is running out, why won't you say it?
Call it what you like
But just leave us out of it, this new change is 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.
And love is just a lyric we all sing along to
Bite your tongue, do as you are told
We'll make it easier for you to write this down
while time is running out, why won't you say it?
And love is just a lyric we all sing along to
Bite your tongue, do as you are told
We'll make it easier for you to write this down
while time is running out, why won't you say it?
We'll make it easier for you to write this down
while time is running out, why won't you say it?
