Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They painted up your secrets
With the lies they told to you
And the least, they ever gave you
Was the most you ever knew
[Verse 2]
And I wonder where these dreams go
When the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screaming
No one's listening, anyway
[Verse 3]
Your voice is small and fading
And you hide in here unknown
And your mother loves your father
'Cause she's got nowhere to go
[Verse 4]
And she wonders where these dreams go
'Cause the world got in her way
What's the point in ever trying
Nothing's changing anyway
[Verse 5]
They press their lips against you
And you love the lies they say
And I tried so hard to reach you
But you're falling anyway
[Verse 6]
And you know I see right through you
'Cause the world gets in your way
What's the point in all this screaming
You're not listening anyway
