Where's All the Joy Songtext
von Flaming Ember

Coming in from the factory
Locked out of life ′cause you lost the key
Then you run to your bed and rest your head
Close your eyes and visualize
All the ways that you might've went wrong
It′s so hard to be strong now

You're ten years past the boarding age
The curtains fell before you reached the stage
Then you remember a small braggin' boy
Full of joy and dreams
Of what growing up would mean
But you′re never gonna see now

Where′s all the joy you promised yourself?
Ask yourself
Where's all the good life you promised yourself?
Where did it go?


Now there was a girl who loved you strong and true
She even said she′d share both good and bad with you
But ambition told you maybe you should wait
Now it's too late ′cause you belong
To your best friend, now she's gone
′Cause you waited too long now

Where's all the joy you promised yourself?
Ask yourself
Where's all the good life you promised yourself?
Where did it go? Where did it go?

Where′s all the good life?
Where′s all the joy?
(Where?) Tell me where
(Where?) Tell me where
(Where?) Where?
(Where? Gone)

It's cloudy out and it looks like rain
And you′re wondering if you'll ever see the sun again
′Cause it's time to end the dream that you clung to
What will you do now that reality
It waits out there for you?
Now you have to face the truth now


Where′s all the joy you promised yourself?
Ask yourself
Where's all the good life you promised yourself?
Where did it go?

Tell me where's the big house and the bank account?
Where′s the diamond rings and the limousine?
Where′s the fancy clothes and your pot of gold?
Where's all the joy?
Where′s all the good life?
