Lyrics

[00:29.63] Well I've tried to live like
[00:32.64] the way that you wanted me to.
[00:36.89] Never needed the proof,
[00:38.77] just followed the rules.
[00:40.67]
[00:41.47] I pick up all the pieces
[00:44.89] and I move my feet as fast as I can.
[00:49.54] I'm always falling behind,
[00:51.13] just float in the lines.
[00:53.45]
[00:54.18] You want more and ambition's taken its toll on you.
[01:00.37]
[01:01.62] Well hey your confidence is fading with your youth.
[01:07.27] And you say that dreamers
[01:09.06] always get what they desire.
[01:12.25]
[01:13.03] Well I've found, the more I want the less I've got.
[01:17.26] Is this the life you've been waiting for?
[01:20.87]
[01:22.11] Or are you hoping that you'll be
[01:24.45] where you want with a little more?
[01:27.48]
[01:33.34] You're coughing blood again.
[01:36.84] I know because I clean up
[01:39.17] the mess every now and then.
[01:41.96] Fold the line along the seam.
[01:44.91] Force a smile and never say what you mean.
[01:49.91] You're in the promised land in someone else's dream.
[01:54.68] If you want more and you'll get there.
[01:57.67] Throw a quarter in the well.
[02:01.79] It's okay, you're fine, ambition's not a crime.
[02:07.43] And you say that dreamers
[02:09.50] always get what they desire.
[02:13.20] Well I've found, that the more
[02:15.57] I want the less I've got.
[02:17.95] Is this the life you've been waiting for.
[02:20.88]
[02:22.38] Or are you hoping that you'll be
[02:24.92] where you want with a little more?
[02:27.54]
[02:28.64] Well ask yourself.
[02:30.64]
[03:13.71] Is this the life you've been waiting for,
[03:18.21] well ask yourself.
[03:19.96] Is this the life you've been waiting for,
[03:23.80]
[03:24.35] Well ask yourself.
[03:26.51] Is this the life you've been waiting for,
[03:29.44]
[03:30.65] you hoping that you'll be
[03:32.96] where you want with a little more.
[03:35.61]
[03:36.81] Well ask yourself.
[03:38.74] Is this the life you've been waiting for,
[03:41.76]
[03:42.97] you hoping that you'll be
[03:45.30] where you want with a little more.
[03:47.83]
[03:49.24] Well ask yourself.
