I look outside this window then I look back at you two
Sleeping there so carelessly trusting me to get us through
I used to trust a someone way back once upon a time
And this is where it got me with no home, without a dime.
This wasn't s'posed to happen. But it happened anyway
And now I'm feeling all used up like some old throw-away
I'm tired of doing programs and taking just what's free
You can take but just so much 'til you give your dignity.
bridge:
Dream your own dreams, babies. I'm out of dreams to give.
My wishes all got washed away. My hopes were all short-lived.
I wish that I could give you some kind of guarantee
That your lives will be different and you won't end up like me
But all I have to give you is the glass out in the sun
Broken dreams, like broken bottles, ain't no use to anyone.
