And This Is How I'm Repaid Sadly.

I’ve always struggled as a poor man.
With empty pockets, always dreaming.
Tired of living amongst my broken dreams.
Sick and tired of my lack of means man.

And this is how I’m repaid sadly…

I have swallowed my pride.
Walked away from my dreams.
I have swallowed my pride.
Walked away from my dreams.

I’ve lived homeless as a lost man.
Waiting for my dreams to come true.
I’ve embraced the concept of true love.
It don’t matter how long I must wait.

Oh, I’ve been right, I’ve been wrong.
Drank away my memories filled with sorrow.
Waiting for my day, but it’s always tomorrow.
Still, I gave from my heart, my art.

Many people have I helped
Many dreams have I fulfilled
But I’m still trapped in darkness
My light burning bright, in silence

And this goes on and on, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah…
