My Dream Killer Lyrics

Did you ever wonder
Why there are people out there
Ready to do anything
Just to see you fail
This ain't no easy listening
This ain't no fairy tale
And the truth is that
You can find those folks
Almost everywhere

They can pose as friends
Lovers
Teachers
Even as well wishers
But as a complete surprise
They turn out to be
Snakes in disguise

And as I try to pull myself up
You only want to drag me down
And as I start to work my way up
You're pushing me around
You know I'm insecure
You do nothing to reassure
You are my dream killer

I bet you didn't know that
We all can be one of them
How can we stop this thing
Ten times out of ten
Say it again
I don't know about you
And you don't know about me
But chances are that if I fall
I'll take you with me
Can't you see

We'd better take a look around
Closer
Over
Under
Sideways and down

And as I try to pull myself up
You only want to drag me down
And as I start to work my way up
You're pushing me around
You know I'm insecure
You do nothing to reassure
Dream killer

What's the sense of dreaming alone
Why can't we try to make this work
Let's make
A better place to be
For folks like you and me

It could be you
It could be me

And as I try to pull myself up
You only want to drag me down
And as I start to work my way up
You're pushing me around
And as I try to pull myself up
You only want to drag me down
And as I try to pull myself up
You only want to drag me down
You only want to drag me down
