Why did you go? Cause I thought I had you in the palm of my hand I'm heading back home How could I resist with these holes in my plans? These streets all look the same They're scratching out my name In the corner of the pavement Helps me find my way And I won't be a slave For the chance to restock Too bad they chose to place my happy feet apart This is a wasteland, motives are all that we have So motivate me from the inside out Of this wasteland, full of vacancy, a foolish place to dream So motivate me from the inside out Call it a masterpiece This painted smile over apathy I call it counterfeit She's the way to keep what haunts me at bay Don't wanna sell my soul To weightless gold of the common mold A story overtold Is a lesson oversold Wasteland, motives are all that we have So motivate me from the inside out Of this wasteland, full of vacancy, a foolish place to dream So motivate me from the inside out You didn't even dare to open the locks from the inside I'll find peace and exist in that fact that at least I did what's right In this wasteland Motives are all that we have This is a wasteland, motives are all that we have So motivate me from the inside out Of this wasteland, full of vacancy, a foolish place to dream So motivate me, motivate me From the inside out So motivate me (motivate me) From the inside out From the inside out
