All You Can Ever Learn Is What You Already Know (Live Version)

Is this how it was intended?

The sunrise over smokestacks in the Midwest

The beauty of this abandoned factory

Christmas lights blinking on and off all

Out of time in what used to be,

Your pink house dreams of a middle class America

I'm trying to believe in you, but all these satellites

And shattered dreams are blocking out my view

Please don't forget who you really are,

'cause nothing really matters when we're gone

Fell in love with his Keno waitress

They honeymooned in Memphis,

They were married by the drive-up window

Trailer parks, neon signs, and an empty box of Lucky Strikes

All used up on the dashboard of America

I'm trying to believe in you but

This world sold its faith for parking lots and drunk sincerity

Please don't forget who you really are,

'cause nothing really matters when we're...

You'll be saddened to know, the train tracks

You once walked as a young boy

Are now nothing but a graveyard

Please don't forget how small we really are,

'cause nothing really matters when we're gone

(Nothing really matters)

I'm trying to believe in you

I'm trying to believe in you

I'm trying to, I'm trying to, I'm trying to

Believe in you
