Alexandra Riorden - Pipe Dreamer Lyrics

Too many questions, child, makes the mind grow weak
She is smiling vacantly
Society's got its keep
But oh to be bold
When the game favors the meek
No I'll never be some cog in this machinery
Sheperd or the sheep?

I cannot fly no more
But I'm high as ceiling
I cannot cry no more
'Cos I'm high as the ceiling

I was once a pipe dreamer
Busking for my meals
An ever-expanding appetite
Fed by high ideals
How can I fold when I've bet all of my mind?
Said it's a gamble, when you try to change your given scenery
And I've wagered all my time

I cannot fly no more
But I'm high as ceiling
I cannot cry no more
'Cos I'm high as the ceiling

I cannot fly no more
But I'm high as ceiling
I cannot cry no more
'Cos I'm high as the ceiling

When the day is through
Have you done all the you can?
Will you fall asleep
Knowing that you've played your hand?
Knowing that you've played your hand
Knowing that you've played your hand
Knowing that you've played your hand
Knowing that you've played your hand
Knowing that you've played your hand
