what could have been Lyrics

a man takes his seat by himself he stares at his plat life has taken a bite i want to cry or just cry out wanting to speak but i dont even try so we go on our way to wind down the days what is it that makes life this way? i will leave you alone as i leave alone what could have been had i not kept to my own? there is a woman i see every week on teh street i think of the life we could have if id speak we dont say a word lovers who will never meet i have to live out my life in my sleep walking around in a cage every day what is it that makes life this way? im just a simple man whos lost his way hoping that ill find real life one day shrinking through life never making a sound who will hear us when we fall to the ground? a shile at last as my head hits the floor i dont have to live like this anymore.

Man takes a seat by himself. Stares at a plate. Life has taken a bite. I wanna growl or maybe just cry. Wanna speak but I don't even try.

So we go on mundane. What makes things this way? I'll leave you alone as you left me. But you're right I should have kept to my own.

There's a woman I see every week. I think of life if I could only speak. We don't say a word. Lovers never meet. I have to live in my sleep.

So we go on through our days. What makes us live this way? Someday it was you left me claiming I should be on my own.

What could've been (x4)

Working in a cage every day What makes us live this way? I'm just a simple man who has lost his way. hoping I'll get the wild life some day.

(just like ?) (just like ?) It's ugly.

Working in a cage every day What makes us live this way? I'm just a grown man who has lost his way. Hoping I'll get a real life one day.

One day. What could have been. (x4)

Shrinking through life never making a sound. Who will hear us when we hit the ground? I feel so bad you hit the floor. Now I don't wanna live this live no more.
