Tell
Penny's got a dream
Locked up in a safe, tucked away just in case it's displayed
It's not that she's ashamed
She's just afraid that things won't go so great
Nothing ever does these days
All she wants to do is make them proud
But she's tied to a foundation she made inside-out
Don't keep your dreams to yourself
You can't prove what you don't tell
Johnny's gotta job, and a sparkle in his eye he tends to hide
Cause no one showed him he could own it if he tried
He's working nine to fives, blinded by a lie
If someone told him what he's worth
He'd probably throw it to the curb
Sometimes words can't convince
Someone who treats themselves like shit
There's a reason they exist
Don't keep your dreams to yourself
You can't prove what you don't tell
My greatest enemy is me
How exactly do you go about defeating yourself?
Johnny's had enough, he's moving on up
To the city, where he'll fall in love
With Penny down the street, who ends up on TV
Asking questions to strangers, and that's how they meet
She asks Johnny about his dreams
He says "I mean, I'm working on em but you're in them I think"
Whoa
Don't keep your dreams to yourself
You can't prove what you don't tell
Locked up in a safe, tucked away just in case it's displayed
It's not that she's ashamed
She's just afraid that things won't go so great
Nothing ever does these days
All she wants to do is make them proud
But she's tied to a foundation she made inside-out
Don't keep your dreams to yourself
You can't prove what you don't tell
Johnny's gotta job, and a sparkle in his eye he tends to hide
Cause no one showed him he could own it if he tried
He's working nine to fives, blinded by a lie
If someone told him what he's worth
He'd probably throw it to the curb
Sometimes words can't convince
Someone who treats themselves like shit
There's a reason they exist
Don't keep your dreams to yourself
You can't prove what you don't tell
My greatest enemy is me
How exactly do you go about defeating yourself?
Johnny's had enough, he's moving on up
To the city, where he'll fall in love
With Penny down the street, who ends up on TV
Asking questions to strangers, and that's how they meet
She asks Johnny about his dreams
He says "I mean, I'm working on em but you're in them I think"
Whoa
Don't keep your dreams to yourself
You can't prove what you don't tell
