You have waited for a long long time,
But not much has really changed
&, You’re still drinking at those same old bars,
Where everybody knows your name
You’re talking about who you’re supposed to be
Is anybody listening?
So, just remember,
That just because you want to,
It doesn’t mean you can,
&, Even though you hoped to,
It doesn’t mean you did
You’ve gotta remember who you are
You’re always hoping to make it out of town,
Even just for a few days
You think you need the time to clear your head,
But it never works out anyway
Still talking about who you’re supposed to be
But nobody’s listening?
So, just remember,
That just because you want to,
It doesn’t mean you can,
&, Even though you hoped to,
It doesn’t mean you did
You’ve gotta remember who you are
Just a failure from the start
&, You’ve been waiting for a long long time,
But nothing has ever changed
So, just remember,
That just because you want to,
It doesn’t mean you can,
&, Even though you hoped to,
It doesn’t mean you did
&, Just because you want to,
It doesn’t mean you can,
&, Even though you hoped to,
It doesn’t mean you did
You’ve gotta remember who you are
