Lyrics

I heard you say the saddest thing
Maybe you’re not worth your own dreams
You believed a long time ago
But nothin’ came of them and somewhere you got old

It was so clear and then you lost your way
Was it The Call you heard or just a sound you made
Does it really matter either way?
Try as hard as you can things don’t ever change

There is no path or sign that shows
You can’t turn back, where would you go?
Will you get there? You could never know
But giving up is saying you won’t

I know it makes you mad how phony things are
It’s a fuckin’ joke and you got no chance at all
You say, ‘whatever it don’t get you down’
But you’re just lookin’ for a reason to stick around

There is no path or sign that shows
You can’t turn back, where would you go?
Will you get there? You could never know
But giving up is saying you won’t

You find yourself where dreams turns to fire
Black smoke rising off the pyre
You find yourself where dreams turns to fire
Black smoke rising off the pyre

Nothin’ says you’ll get a fair shake
So let the work you do be the take
And though it may not seem like it now
The only thing can stop you is your own doubt

There is no path or sign that shows
You can’t turn back, where would you go?
Will you get there? You could never know
But giving up is saying you won’t
