You've sworn allegiance to your dreams But still it seems so hard That tightrope that you walk Why can't you put it down Drink your way through one more Clouded chapter of your life The hands reaching out to help you Only seemed to push you further away Your time's up And away You've made your choice now there's nothing left to say Your times up And away Mistreated and abused But they couldn't steal your heart Everyone was so confused But your friends all played their part Most likely to succeed Still you threw it all away Now your dreams lie buried next to you they're gone forever Where's the spark in your eye I miss your smile You're burning inside out Did you want to? Everything they told you to make the bad things go away Everything that they kept from you Everything I wanted to say
