It takes a lifetime to really know
What you want and what you're owed
Doesn't exist, it's just a hoax.

They start you off with hopes and dreams
And rip the ground right under your feet
Put the fear back in your heart.

Refrein:
And we long for more
In return we get back less
I'd give it all and still there's no success

And I dreamed of you
I tried to buy in late
All you said was, don't forget to beg.

As the visions turn out plain
Do you break the promise, do you go and change
To the feelings vanished, as the future fades

Refrein:
And we long for more
In return we get back less
I'd give it all and still there's no success

And I dreamed of you
I tried to buy in late
All you said was, don't forget to beg.
