Foster the People — Ask Yourself

[Verse 1] 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 its toll on you Well, hey, your confidence is fading with your youth [Chorus] 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? [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] Is this the life you've been waiting for? Well, ask yourself Is this the life you've been waiting for? Well, ask yourself [Outro] 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
