last cheap shot at the dream

i can't look into the future

but i can't cheat the past

i will wipe away my memory

i will find freedom at last

i will walk away from everything that i used to want so bad

i can't look into the future

but the future is the only thing i have

the only thing i have

i am standing on the pavement

i am staring at a sign

a cheaper flight to paradise i am told i'll never find

there are cameras on the rooftops

there are crazies on the green

i will jump a plane to any place far enough away to get me out of who i've been

get me out of who i've been

i have shaken

never bitten

every hand that ever hit me

time has taken what it wanted

now i'm gonna get my victory

with my last cheap shot at the dream

i can't look into the future

but i can't cheat the past

i will wipe away my memory

i will find freedom at last

i can't look into the future

but i know i don't wanna see

another day in hell with all the mediocrities

i will walk away from everything that the world wants me to do

i can't look into the future

but the future's where i'm walking to

i'm walking to
