[Verse 1]
They took all of your money, didn't they?
They count the tires alms from the poor
They pissed on your dreams, didn't they?
And wondered if you'd come back and give a little more

[Refrain]
Make your mother proud, you've got to
Make your mother proud, you've got to

Sharpen those dead dreams
Pay them violently
Write them quietly
Secret History

[Breakdown]
Sold
The dream
For arms
And Legs
To work
To eat
To sleep
Repeat

[Refrain]
Sharpen those dead dreams
Pay them violently
Write them quietly
Secret History

[Breakdown]
Make your mother proud, you've got to
Sold
The dream
For arms
And legs
To piss
And shit
In homes
You rent
Make your mother proud, you've got to
Sharpen those dead dreams
You’re on your own in a secret history
You’re on your own in a secret history
