Could Have Been Something

We begin with the world that we're living in
Opening eyes surmise the difference between paper dolls and freedom within
Every night, every day
And you wonder why it's always the same
When repetition's the name of the game
We wake up, earn the means to survive, and déjà vu it again
This could have been something, the past can't change so the hope erodes
This could have been something, so many ways to go, so few to pave the roads
The dollar bill will break your bones, wasn't this life not a beautiful fall?
And you wonder why the dream in your eyes, just seems to never materialize
Look around, the realism gleams
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, eh
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, eh
This could have been something, the past can't change so the hope erodes
This could have been something, so many ways to go, so few to pave the roads
In the madness of a world confused and misled
Where the Truth and within is broken
Preliminary imagery connects the time and place of you and me
Yields to the souls assigned to misery
This could have been something
