Where You’re Supposed to Be Lyrics by Jay Parish

2021

You were supposed to be rich five years ago
You said the same thing five years before that
And now everyone around you already knows
Whatever promise you make next, it won't last
You still try to act like you believe it
That you're still gonna have your day
But I already know the real reason
It'd be too painful to hear yourself say
That all your dreaming got you nowhere
And now you wonder if that's where you're supposed to be
That all your dreaming got you nowhere
And now you wonder if that's where you're supposed to be
And now you wonder
If that's where you're supposed to be
This got you nowhere, and maybe
That's where you're supposed to be
This got you nowhere, but maybe
That's where you're supposed to be
You said you'd become somebody ten years ago
But it took ten years to prove yourself wrong
You said you would have your chance, well, where did it go
You're the biggest star the world never saw
You still try to act like you believe it
That you're still gonna have your day
But I already know the real reason
It'd be too painful to hear yourself say
That all your dreaming got you nowhere
And now you wonder
If that's where you're supposed to be
All your dreaming got you nowhere
And now you wonder
If that's where you're supposed to be
This got you nowhere, and maybe
That's where you're supposed to be
This got you nowhere, but maybe
That's where you're supposed to be
You can't live like this
And you wonder if this is all you'll ever be
You won't say the words
It only makes it worse, but everyone already sees
That all your dreaming got you nowhere
And now you wonder
If that's where you're supposed to be
All your dreaming got you nowhere
And now you wonder
If that's where you're supposed to be
This got you nowhere, and maybe
That's where you're supposed to be
This got you nowhere, but maybe
That's where you're supposed to be
