Lyrics

So they say live free and follow your dreams Your dreams are now nightmares and your life's got a lien Sell your stories for fortune, curse all that which you lack Climb the stairs, walk, but don't run, and never look back Say, listen up and you'll hear it go away As you waste all your money just to waste all your days Not what you do so as much what you don't In the end we're all lining up to pet the scapegoat Wash it all away, even yesterday, it don't matter to me There's a song we sing around half past midnight No wrong or right, good or bad, truth or lie Everybody's here singing to the voices of life Tryin' hard to remember what we want to forget Everyone's speaking louder saying more than the last Spending time buying selling while they never giving back Sit with me on a Sunday, together we'll see All we've got is each other, and all we want's to be free An old man once told me these words, and I quote Grab whatever you can, let the rest fall on hope For those less fortunate, we'll take our chances and see There's a song we sing around half past midnight No wrong or right, good or bad, truth or lie Everybody's here singing to the voices of life Tryin' hard to remember what we want to forget Everyday we fall, farther, but we never rise Our ears to the truth, in fact, always covers our eyes Not the world, it's the U.S., but that's not you and I Hey fool, the man never faltered, he just changed his disguise There's a song we sing around half past midnight No wrong or right, good or bad, truth or lie Everybody's here singing to the voices of life Tryin' hard to remember what we want to forget There's a song we sing around half past midnight No wrong or right, good or bad, truth or lie Everybody's here singing to the voices of life Tryin' hard to remember what we want to forget ©2011 True Fish Music, All Rights Reserved
