Don't talk to me of shattered dreams

Of course you don't know what it means

To live for someone else, you can't just take

And when you're bitten by the truth

You blame it on your mis-spent youth

You never seem to learn by your mistakes.

And I ain't hangin' round to see

You turn on someone else like me

I'm still alive and you know the way I live

But baby that's one way you'll never be

Such simple things you fail to see

You take back everything you ever give.
