What You Wanted Video (MV)

I don't know why
You can't get what you wanted

Soft wooden floors and counterfeit bills
Hoping the Lord doesn't, take notice of me
Lost in the need of things, planted in memories
Television signals bouncing, an advertised sea
Blowing off the drive for, the American dream
Just for a few weeknights, to live like a king
Holding doors for people who don't even look up
It's hard to have hope when, you believe in nothing

Tragedy comes to those blind or insightful
News headlines get washed, into sewer grates
Accounting for all the meaningless voices
It must be madness to see all their fates
Political ragtime chiming through commercials
Overwhelmed with feelings of loss and apathy
Melted cheese pizzas thrown about on the pavement
The drunks don't care that the poor go hungry

Visualize the direct problems of your life
Take care in determining just action
Always, always follow through

You got one life, one chance, so you know, what to do
