Magazines, file cabinets for your dreams
So Motivated
Real as celluloid visions on a silver screen
First they prop, then they got you, but then they'll just drop you
The things you traded
Into the mold they hold you'll do the things that you're told
For your place in line
And now somehow you've surpassed me and the values I hold
Gaining momentum
Trying to keep it real quickly got old
But when you bring your nose back down level to the ground
Why have you spent them
You'll take a look at your place and realize there's no one around
All
You, you got yourself real far now you on top of it all and
You, should realize that the higher you climb the faster your fall and
You, you think that getting sold will get you farther than keeping it real
You, can never see the true facts and what you have become in this deal
Donny don't dance
People disappear
Reason still unclear
Turn and no one here
So what now of your ways that brought you lifestyle and fame
Then comes one better
You're told it's a shame but you're replaced by a new fresh face
On your mind you're on your knees but in life you can't be seen
This crumpled letter
Making apologies or saying sorry to me
So easily tossed
When bitterness not held and nothing left to say
We're unaffected
We reserved your place at the table, it's still empty and saved
But do it for the right reasons the right way you would never dare
But you've rejected
But like it matters anyway cause no one even cares
This
You, you got yourself real far now you on top of it all and
You, should realize that the higher you climb the faster your fall and
You, you think that getting sold will get you farther than keeping it real
You, can never see the true facts and what you have become in this deal
Donny don't dance
People disappear
Reason still unclear
Turn and no one here
