People tell him he's the one, tell him he's the lucky one
Hit the singles bar tonight - Get another piece tonight
He takes her home in the morning light
This one night lust is all he knows
No more dreams of the perfect wife
Lost his dreams a long time ago
I've gone through the motions too long
I've been let down before
We're all just fooling ourselves
But I can't lie no more
I'm not afraid of life no more
Not a crying kid no more
Why you drink so much there, boy?
To kill the pain of understanding
I really try to keep my smile
But deep inside my soul's still sore
What to do when lights go out
I guess that's just what faith is for
Gone through the motions too long
And I've been let down before
We're all just fooling ourselves
But I can't lie no more
I lost all my dreams
Do dreams really matter?
I lost all my dreams
I'm here now, that's what matters
Gone through the motions too long
And I've been let down before
We're all just fooling ourselves
But I can't lie no more
I lost all my dreams
Do dreams really matter?
I lost all my dreams
I'm here now, that's what matters
I've been down that road before
I believed those metaphors
I've been down that road before
So they take the dreams away
So they take my dreams away
Now I see reality
I guess it happens every day
Keep ahead from day to day
It's hard to have to wait so long
I prayed until my knees were bruised
But they still use guns and Ron's still gone
Gone through the motions too long
And I've been let down before
We're all just fooling ourselves
But I can't lie no more
I lost all my dreams
Do dreams really matter?
I lost all my dreams
I'm here now, that's what matters
I lost all my dreams
