You wake up in the morning Look for a clue, something new Turn on the radio and it's as dead As the visions dying in your head And when you were young You had big ideas no hidden fears You had your heroes they were walkin' tall Now your devotion seems comical
[1] So now you' got older And the world's got colder than it used to be Every day gets longer and turns into the darker night Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter but your history I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right
You played the game as children Didn't understand life's not so grand Love hurts you and you can be the lonely, lonely one Some people got it easy They got it made, so unafraid You'll be the fool and find the winner he's gonna take it all
