Everybody's got a secret life
Got their stars and stripes, got a sunrise
You can see it when they roll their eyes to the neon lights in the night time

And if you want it, it don't matter much
You can never get enough

You're searching for what?
A better life?
A dollar sign?
I blew my heart out trying for what?
A paradise
I'll never find
I'm not surprised
But maybe

I'm just feeling lucky 'cause my hands are tied
And my mouth is dry
And I won't fight
And I've been acting like I'm on your side
And I don't know why
And I don't mind

I don't wanna 'cause I have no luck
And I never ask for much

Except for a shock
A better life
A dollar sign
I blew my heart out trying for what?
A paradise
I'll never find
I'm not surprised
But, maybe I was?
Yer, maybe I was?
You're trying too much
Well, maybe it's never gonna be enough

You're searching for what
A better life
A dollar sign
I blew my heart out trying for what?
A paradise
I'll never find
I'm not surprised
But, maybe I was?

Ohh, ohhh
