|
Car Lights flash my eyes |
|
Blinded, Hypnotized |
|
Lord knows |
|
I'm livingand |
|
I'm never coming back |
|
Now one generation dies |
|
Next one wins the prizeand that's the big surprisethere's demise in all of their liesit's never to late to realize |
|
That's just the way things arethat's just the way it is now [x2] |
|
I walk through the cemeteryit's all empty |
|
Now I put a roseon the grave of a fallen hero |
|
And I look out into the wild |
|
All I see is emptiness |
|
So much loneliness |
|
I just want forgiveness |
|
That's just the way things arethat's just the way it is now [x2] |
|
When dreams fade away |
|
It won't be long |
|
End up singing the same old song |
|
What went right, |
|
What Went |
|
WrongBad times here, |
|
Good times gone |
|
First rule they always sell |
|
Second rule never tell |
|
Third rule straight to hell |
|
White collar criminals |
|
Living in jailit's all that they gave |
|
Sold your soul to get paid |
|
Buy you end up in an early grave |
|
Your own neck you can't saveit's a letter that you can't sendit's a wound that will never mend |
|
Pain level peaks at ten |
|
Some stand out |
|
Some stand in |
|
That's just the way things arethat's just the way it is now [x2] |
