I don't know where I am and I don't know what to do   Everything is so unreal   And I'm losing sight of you   And it's so unfair   When I'm stuck here in this despair   My future's gone nowhere   The best laid plans destroyed so quietly   No one to blame except me     This is the rest of your life   You start tomorrow   Don't know where you lost the time   Drown your sorrows   Feels like you never had a choice   You're cold and alone   You've always been afraid to raise your voice   But not tomorrow     A few short weeks   To tear apart your life   And I don't know if I'll reach the other side   If I see you when we're both 35   What will have become of both our lives     Don't let anyone get in your way   You'll watch the future fade   And then your friends all move away and you've got   nothing   You stop and wonder where it all went wrong   In November   Try and get back up onto your throne   You won't remember     Have you ever felt things slip away   You just can't hold on   Take a breath and sink beneath the waves   You can't stop yourself   It's too late when you wake up one day  See your reflection   Work a deadend job for shitty pay   And have no lover     And what's worse you saw this coming   But you stood by and did nothing   Change your ways while you're still young   Study hard and try and have some fun   Hold on to the things that make you proud   And never let the money get you down     When you see her don't forget to smile   You had some fun, and you're just in denial   You can always leave if you're so brave  Quit your job and take the holiday  And start your life again    A few short weeks to tear apart your life   And I don't know if I'll reach the other side   When you see me when I'm 35   We'll find out if I could save my life   From mediocrity  http://last.fm/music/My+Dreams+Left+Destroyed    these lyrics are submitted by TheKhakinator
