lyrics

You're just another burden
A worthless person
That's what they told him
"You won't amount to anything"
He won't admit that
Life has its limits
He didn't listen
To a word they had to say
His supporters fell by the way side
Road ahead was harder than it seemed
But still that boy he pressed on
Through the hardships
And he kept chancing his dream

The boy he opens his eyes
(Opens his eyes)
The scars they never tell lies
(Never tell lies)
We're the burden you wish you could forget

Time and time again
They spit in his face
Mocked him and maimed him for
All his mistakes
How will you take your fall from grace
Will you pick yourself up and try again
or fall flat on your face

The boy he opens his eyes
(Opens his eyes)
The scars they never tell lies
(Never tell lies)
We're the burden you wish you could forget
Dreams that we never live
You're the people we can regret
Yeah dreams that we never live
We're the burden you regret

You regret

They hate me they ridicule me
But to be honest that just fueled me
They maim me they try to ruin me
But in the end you helped create the new me

They tried time and time again to tell me
"You won't amount to anything"
But I have a dream
and I plan to see this through

Step back and take a look at what we came for
There's not a fear I haven't faced
Yet I still yearn for the dreams that we set out for
The heart that we still bleed for
The music we still die for
I believe in a higher place
where people come together
and fear the fucks that we can't take
and I don't here the words you come to scream
Cause if you doubt me in this world
I can fuck you in my dreams

The boy he opens his eyes
(Opens his eyes)
The scars they never tell lies
(Never tell lies)
We're the burden you wish you could forget
Dreams that we never live
You're the people we can regret
Yeah dreams that we never live
We're the burden you regret

and now,
We're stuck in the dreams that we'd die for
and now,
We're the people you regret

They tried time and time again to tell me
You won't amount to anything
But I have a dream
And I plan to see this through
