How can you listen when you only hear what you want?
And how can you see if you never open your eyes?
What is the lesson that you expect to learn in thought?
And how can you speak the truth when all you know are lies?
Well you better sit tight boy
You've got some things to learn about life
Like waiting for the sun to shine on a cloudy day
And crying like a baby to get your fucking way
You'll find it doesn't work like that
Like praying for someone to take all your pain away
Or depending on someone to carry all the weight
You'll find out it's just not like that
And how can you breathe when you don't ever shut your mouth?
And how can you bleed when you just can't figure it out?
Well you better sit tight
You've got some things to learn about life
Like waiting on the sun to shine on a cloudy day
And crying like a baby to get your fucking way
You'll find it doesn't work like that
Like praying for someone to take all your pain away
Or depending on someone to carry all the weight
You'll find out it's just not like that
You'll find this out one day
Yeah, you'll find out one day
Like waiting on the sun to shine on a cloudy day
And crying like a baby to get your fucking way
You'll find it doesn't work like that
Like praying for someone to take all your pain away
Or depending on someone to carry all the weight
You'll find out it's just not like that
No, it's not like that
It's not like that
It's not like that
It's not like that at all
