lyrics

OUT OF REACH

Whenever it’s clear that I’ve failed my dreams
My father watches
He judges all, it seems

“No pity for a loser,”
His voice echoes in me
“Always play for keeps.”

But what does it mean to succeed these days?
When debts are mounting
And dreams don’t feed the kids

I’m scared of getting older
Please don’t be angry
That I outgrew your gifts

[chorus]
Forgive me dear Dad,
I’m bitter and mad,
At the choices I had.

I did well in school,
I followed the rules
But the world is cruel...

Are white picket fences out of reach for me?
The markets closing
Investments gone for good

I don’t go to the doctor
I can’t afford it
Where’s our robin hood?

Are white picket fences out of reach?
Are white picket fences out of reach for me?

The day’s coming fast,
When your verdict is cast
For the crimes you’ve amassed

You put me through school,
You made all the rules
But the world is cruel...
