At home, you were laying the stones
For your future plans
Just like your Father did
Just like your Mother wished
Looking through a windowpane,
It's OK, you were never one to risk it anyway
Just like your Father was
Just like your Mother was
Standing before them, head down
Don't be afraid to let them see
What it is that makes you feel alive
It's not enough, It's not enough
It's not enough to say what you want.
It's not enough, It's not enough
It's not enough to wait for tomorrow
Your friends like to pretend
That they're happiness will never end
Just like your parents who,
Learned from their parents who,
Learned from their parents who
You won't change, you'll stay the same
As long as you let things stand in your way
Just like your Father did.
Just like your Mother did
