The System - Whippersnapper

You never heard a word your father said\nUntil he said, «Goodbye»\nAnd now you walk these streets in agony\nJust looking for the reason why\nYou try to tell me that you’ve played it safe\nLay in wait, looking for your reason to shine\nAnd all this talk about intensity, your destiny\nYou’re telling me you’re going to be just fine\nI want to believe you\nBut it’s too late\nI want to believe you\nBut it’s too late\nFinally you’ve come to see\nThat nothing’s as it really seems\nYour broken dreams, your blue skies turn to gray\nAnd now you’ve left me kind of dangling\nWondering if ever really felt this way\nI want to believe you\nBut it’s too late\nI want to believe you\nBut it’s too late\nSay you’re going to prove yourself right\nSay you won’t go down without a fight\nDon’t know how «The system «is going to let you live\nBut words alone almost always mean nothing\nLook in your eyes, I know that you’re bluffing\nTruth be known, I think you never had the will to give\nWaste away your life, no motivation\nWaste away your life, no motivation\nWaste away your life, no motivation now\nWaste away your life, no motivation\nWaste away your life, no motivation\nWaste away your life, no motivation now\nNow I’ve learned how to walk away\nAnd let you go your separate way\nBefore you drag me down\nAnd in between your tears\nYou scream and shout, you’re selling out\nThe water is overhead but I won’t drown\nI want to believe you\nBut it’s too late\nI want to believe you\nBut it’s too late
