The Graduate - Bet It All lyrics

rate me

Where's the life that you promised

I'm blinded by all the city lights

They keep me wide awake tonight

I let my life go the high way

Somehow I never saw the signs

Yeah, I put all my trust in painted lines

Now all my stories sound the same

Yeah, and I've got no one else to blame

I know so don't say anything

I poured out my heart when no one was listening

Now I'd do anything to sleep

Cause the voice in my head is screaming

I know so don't say anything

Where's the life you imagined

A perfect job, a house, a car

A pretty view from a big back yard

You left your life for my way

No steady wage and a cheap guitar

Now we're right back at the start

From the start it just gets harder

I know so don't say anything

I poured out my heart when no one was listening

Now I'd do anything to sleep

Cause the voice in my head is screaming

I know so don't say anything

I know I'm a disappointment

But I bet it all and never folded

I know I'm a disappointment

So why do you believe in me

Cause the voice in my head is screaming

I know so don't say anything

I poured out my heart when no one was listening

Now I'd do anything to sleep

Cause the voice in my head is screaming

I know so don't say anything, yeah

I know so don't say anything
