Foster The People - Ask Yourself lyrics

[Foster The People - Ask Yourself lyrics]

Well, I've tried to live like the
Way that you wanted me to
Never needed the proof
Just followed the rules
Well, I pick up all the paces and move
My feet as fast as I can
I'm always falling behind
Just float in the lines
And you want more and ambition's
Taken it's toll on you
Well, hey your confidence is
Fading with your youth

If you say that dreamers always
Get what they desire
Well, I've found the more I want
The less I've got
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Are you hoping that you'll be where
You want with a little more?

You're coughing blood again
I know 'cause I clean up the
Mess every now and then
Just fold the line along the seam
Force a smile and never say what you mean
You're in the promised land
In someone else's dream
If you want more and you'll get there
Throw a quarter in the well
It's okay, you're fine
Ambition's not a crime

If you say that dreamers always
Get what they desire
Well, I've found the more I want
The less I've got
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Are you hoping that you'll be where
You want with a little more?
Well, ask yourself

Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Well, ask yourself
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Well, ask yourself

Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Are you hoping that you'll be where
You want with a little more?
Well, ask yourself
Is this the life you've been waiting for?
Are you hoping that you'll be where
You want with a little more?
Well, ask yourself
