Lyrics: Acoustic #3
Album: What I Learned About Ego, Opinion Art and Commerce
Artist: Goo Goo Dolls
 

They painted up your secrets
With the lies they told to you
And the least they ever gave you
Was the most you ever knew

And I wonder where these dreams go
When the world gets in your way
What’s the point in all this screaming?
No one’s listening anyway

Your voice is small and fading
and you hide in here unknown
And your mother loves your father
Cuz she’s got nowhere to go

And she wonders where these dreams go
Cuz the world got in her way
What’s the point in ever trying?
Nothing’s changing anyway

They press their lips against you
And you love the lies they say
And I tried so hard to reach you
But you’re falling anyway

And you know I see right through you
Cuz the world gets in your way
What’s the point in all this screaming?
You’re not listening anyway
