"Ask Yourself" lyrics
"Ask Yourself"
Well, I've tried to live like the way that you wanted me to
Never needed the proof, just followed the rules
Well, I pick up all the paces and move my feet as fast as I can
I'm always falling behind, just float in the lines
And you want more and ambition's taken its toll on you
Well, hey, your confidence is fading with your youth
If you say that dreamers always get what they desire
Well, I've found the more I want, the less I've got
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Are you hoping that you'll be where you want with a little more?
You're coughing blood again
I know 'cause I clean up the mess every now and then
Just fold the line along the seam
Force a smile and never say what you mean
You're in the promised land in someone else's dream
If you want more and you'll get there
Throw a quarter in the well
It's okay, you're fine, ambition's not a crime
If you say that dreamers always get what they desire
Well, I've found the more I want, the less I've got
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Are you hoping that you'll be where you want with a little more?
Well, ask yourself
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Well, ask yourself
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Well, ask yourself
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Are you hoping that you'll be where you want with a little more?
Well, ask yourself
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Are you hoping that you'll be where you want with a little more?
Well, ask yourself

Cold War Kids - "Miracle Mile" I was supposed to do great things
I know the road was long
But I wasn't raised to shoot for fame
I had the safety on
I cut my ties, I sold my rings
I wanted none of this

Take a seat next to me
You know we got
We got what you need
We may be liars preaching to choirs

We can sell your dreams

They got a pill for everything...
The Black Keys - "Lonely Boy" Well I’m so above you
And it’s plain to see
But I came to love you anyway
So you pulled my heart out

Waiting, waiting

She had the kids with the vicious smiles, they got me
Up on the hill with the trophy wives
She's doing alright, all alright (yeah)
They let her roam...
Of Monsters And Men - "King And Lionheart" Taking over this town they should worry,
But these problems aside I think I taught you well.
That we won't run, and we won't run, and we won't run.
And in the winter night sky ships are sailing,...
