Well, I've tried to live like the way that you wanted me to

Never needed the proof, just followed the rules

Well, I pick up all the pieces, and move my feet as fast as I can

I'm always fallin' behind, just floatin' the lines

And you want more and ambition's taken it's toll on you

Well, hey, your confidence is fading with your youth

And you say the dreamers always get what they desire

Well, I've found the more I want the less I've got

Is this the life you've been waiting for?

Are you hopin' that you'll be where you want with a little more?

You're coughin' blood again

I know, 'cause I clean up the mess every now and then

Just fold the line along the seam

Force a smile and never say what you mean

In the promised land, someone else's dream

If you want more, you'll get there

Throw a quarter in the well

It's okay, you'll find, ambition's not a crime

You say the dreamers always get what they desire

Well, I've found the more I want, the less I've got

Is this the life you've been waiting for?

Are you hoping that you'll be where you want, with a little more?

Well, ask yourself

Is this the life you've been waiting for?

Well ask yourself, is this the life you've been waiting for?

Well, ask yourself

Is this the life you've been waiting for?

Are you hoping that you'll be where you want, with a little more?

Well, ask yourself

Is this the life you've been waiting for?

You hoping that you'll be where you want, with a little more

Well, ask yourself
