The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Living without reason, dwarfed, alone, imprisoned Wondering why I'm here at all Why I'm even trying destined to be filing The higher you reach the harder you fall And then you say We're all the same All got our dreams Loose at their seams 'Cause we all spit at stars We all spit at stars We all spit at stars Unifying facts however we act We feel we've not made our true goal Something we can see but not reach Or be can leave you dead in a hole Dreams are all the same We're all the same All got our dreams Loose at their seams 'Cause we all spit at stars We all spit at stars We all spit at stars You don't get what you don't deserve Don't expect the world will know what that's absurd Learn to spit up towards the stars 'Cause who knows soon your spit will land on Mars And then you'll say We're all the same All got our dreams Loose at their seams 'Cause we all spit at stars We all spit at stars We all spit at stars
