Symptoms

Would it kill you to try
For once in your life
You had the world at your feet
But you just looked to the sky
You gotta know
What you’re workin' for
You gotta be
Free to be more
'Cause I have seen so many nights
Twisting while these dreams were mine
You thought you could be anything
These symptoms taught me everything
You have too many symptoms
Well, ya think the world owes you a favor
But I don’t see you runnin' the savior
And when the time runs out there’ll be nothin' left to amaze ya
If you don’t know
What you’re livin' for
You better think
To pray for more
'Cause I have seen so many nights
Twisting while these dreams were mine
You thought you could be anything
If I was dreamin'
Ohh-ohh
Ohh-oh-ohh
If I with a broken mind
Will I heal within given time
Oh, this world’s unreliable
What we need is a miracle
You have too many symptoms
In the end do you want an illusion
Or a lifetime-spent confusion
If you don’t know
What you’re livin' for
You’ll never be
Free to be more, yeah
'Cause I have seen so many nights
Twisting while these dreams were mine
So close you can taste it
Instead you sat there wasted
All of your schemes and all of your lies
Words that I have memorized
like a falling star
And though my dreams are never far
