taking time to buy you joy
i peeled my eyes so i can see
the things i bought to fill myself
left my glass empty
and you could see my dreams evolve into just one chance
as romantic as a love affair that begins and ends with a glance
tell me what you wanna be, is it the same?
tell me how it's gonna sound so lame
tell me how's your music thing; is it as you dreamed?
money hand and hand with fame
are you happy?
i was too lost to see
anything concise
i could never place you on
a podium of lies
but when your dreams slip by in front of you, it's such a tease
i hope that there's no one there to see them slip by me
tell me what you wanna be; is it the same?
tell me how it's gonna sound so lame
tell me how's your music thing; is it as you dreamed?
money hand and hand with fame
are you happy?
when you finally took my hand
i could understand
when you tell me nothing's wrong
do you think i'm still a man
