Too many times I am reminded,nwhat I sow I reap.nThanks for the tip,nbut my own counsel will I keep.nIt's such a shame,nyou only see as far as hope is high.nIf only you could see,nwhat I've seen with your eyes.nnChoke down that advice reflex,nand we'll all get by just fine.nTuck back the pearls of wisdom,nor you'll feel a piece of my mind.nnWho are you to tell me what is right?nYou listen close,nIt's my fucking life.nI'll let the rain fall where it may.nnHow many dreams have you erased,nso far between and few.nAnd I wonder why,nthe world got the best of you.nFell free to disagree,nbut you'll just be a brick in my wall.nSo take me as I am, nor don't take me at all.nnChoke down that advice reflex,nand we'll all get by just fine.nTuck back the pearls of wisdom,nor you'll feel a piece of my mind.nnWho are you to tell me what is right?nYou listen close,nIt's my fucking life.nI'll let the rain fall where it may.nnToo late to think of stopping now,nI can't give up,nI don't know how.nI will not live and die a slave.nHave I always been wrong?nMaybe just maybe I don't belong.nAm I lost in the deep?nMaybe just maybe I'll stay asleep.nnI do not want to wake up from this.nnSave me.nn-Guitar Solo-nnAnd now I realize,nthe dream was never like it seemed.nWhat's there to wake up from.nwhen it's all real to me?n
