Pearls Of Wisdom

The script is written word for word line by line
The vows are spoken time and time again
As the future's chosen you're always waiting
Standing in line
You keep me hoping while you break my heart with all those plans

All the different endings
Side by side by side
But all your dreams read like fiction
You can't match the pearl of wisdom
When I survey the kingdom that was mine
Yesterday's domain through the eyes of a spy
Every trick in the book I tried

If you could play their game
Learn how to twist the facts
Addictions would be strengths
And you could live by their pearls of wisdom
