Right now the world
looks so exciting
But that first rung
it feels so cold
The air up there looks
so inviting
You'll do the rest
when you are old
The printed pictures
they stain your hands
It's like a memory
you don't own
The architecture of your
grand plans
Designed to put you
on the throne
The bitter taste of the unknown
I'll tell you for nothing
you're not the only one
singing singing
Trying to bring to
life your dreams
I'll tell you for nothing
you're not the only
one who believes
I don't know
if you're gonna make it
How many girls
you're gonna know
I don't know
if you'll pay your dad back
With front row tickets
to your show
Right now your snare drum
is a trash can
Your bedroom shadows
are your stage
Your old best friend he
is your one fan
He'll watch the light
inside you fade
I'll tell you for nothing
you're not the only one
singing singing
Trying to bring to
life your dreams
I'll tell you for nothing
you're not the only one
who believes
I'll tell you for nothing
you're not the only one
singing singing
Trying to bring to
life your dreams
I'll tell you for nothing
you're not the only one
who believes
I'll tell you for nothing
you're not the only one
singing singing
Trying to bring to
life your dreams
I'll tell you for nothing
you're not the only one
who believes
I'll tell you for nothing
you're not the only one
singing singing
Trying to bring to
life your dreams
I'll tell you for nothing
you're not the only one
fading away
