Broken Dreams

You lose, but does that mean you don't try?
Does everything just fall apart and leave you
Stranded standing on the side?
Now questioning whats right in front of your eyes
A chance to make a choice to try and change your life
You say it won't be alright
That everything is a waste
I can't believe my eyes
Just tell me what to say

So can you tell me what's left
When everything you've cared for carries on
When broken dreams are built to make you strong
When the memories of yesterday fall through
These broken dreams pick up the pieces under you

If I could change the past I never would
Some call them mistakes, I call them lessons learned
Like the thorn that's in my side
And where can I turn?
These feelings are so real
To take away what may have been
And start to really feel
I've carried on too long
Just tell me what's gone wrong
To face the day this time I've got to make it right
With nothing to lose
Now take away the veil that's been covering your eyes
Just tell me what to say

So can you tell me what's left
When everything you've cared for carries on
When broken dreams are built to make you strong
When the memories of yesterday fall through
These broken dreams are going to help you pull on through
When everything you've cared for carries on
When broken dreams are built to make you strong
When the memories of yesterday fall through
These broken dreams pick up the pieces that are you

So can you tell me what's left
When everything you've cared for carries on
When broken dreams are built to make you strong
When the memories of yesterday fall through
These broken dreams are built to help you, through
When everything you've cared for carries on
When broken dreams are built to make you strong
When the memories of yesterday fall through
These broken dreams pick up the pieces that are you
