If you break the story down to the core
It's just a tired old lie
That we've all heard before
I try to do what's right
I try to be what you want
But I'm finding there's no way in anymore

What was once so free of doubt
Now's just hard to figure out
Only time will tell, this can't be explained
Sometimes I wait for you, do I wait in vain

If you break the story down to the core
I've got a pocket full of keys
But I still can't open the door
Now I'm assuming there's a way
And I'm hoping someone's gonna help
But I'm not gonna hold my breath anymore

What was once so free of doubt
Now's just hard to figure out
Only time will tell, this can't be explained
Sometimes I wait for, do I wait in vain?

What was once so free of doubt
Now's just hard to figure out
Only time will tell, this can't be explained
Sometimes I wait for you, do I wait in vain?
