Lyrics

I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA MAKE IT
I THOUGHT THAT I COULD FLY
BUT THE DREAMS HAVE LEFT WITHOUT ME
AND I’M KISSING THEM GOODBYE
I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE EASY
JUST TO MAKE MYSELF A BUCK
I GOT IN THE QUEUE FOR TALENT
BUT I MISSED THE ONE FOR LUCK

NOW IT’S ALL GONE IT WAS AN ILLUSION
NOBODY KNOWS MY NAME
AND I’M SO TIRED OF STILL LOSING
THEY’VE TAKEN MY DREAMS AWAY
TAKEN MY DREAMS AWAY

PEOPLE ALWAYS TOLD ME
THERE’D BE NEON IN MY NAME
BUT THE THEATRE NEVER OPENS
AND THE LIGHTS ARE ALL THE SAME
YOU SEE THE DOORS ARE ALWAYS CLOSED HERE
IF YOU’RE NOT IN THE INDUSTRY
YOU SPEND YOUR LIFE BELIEVING
BUT IT’S NOT YOUR DESTINY

NOW IT’S ALL GONE IT WAS AN ILLUSION
NOBODY KNOWS MY NAME
AND I’M SO TIRED OF STILL LOSING
THEY’VE TAKEN MY DREAMS AWAY
TAKEN MY DREAMS AWAY

MAYBE I’LL BE VAN GOGH
MAYBE I’LL NEVER KNOW
BUT THE TIME HAS COME TO LIFE MY LIFE

AND IT’S ALL GONE IT WAS AN ILLUSION
NOBODY KNOWS MY NAME
AND I’M SO TIRED OF STILL LOSING
THEY’VE TAKEN MY DREAMS AWAY
TAKEN MY DREAMS AWAY

ALL GONE IT WAS AN ILLUSION
NOBODY KNOWS MY NAME
AND I’M SO TIRED OF STILL LOSING
THEY’VE TAKEN MY DREAMS AWAY
TAKEN MY DREAMS AWAY
