|
Well, well, I can hear the treetops in the distance |
|
I can see your hollowed eyes |
|
What have you done to yourself in this instance? |
|
I guess it comes as no surprise |
|
Well, I can see the billboards in the distance |
|
Writing is on every wall |
|
Oh, I don't wanna know about your business |
|
Sooner or later, friend, you've got to fall |
|
Well, every night it's gotta be adventure |
|
The way you live your life's a crime |
|
And if you're guilty, will you serve the sentence? |
|
You're already doing time |
|
There's nothing wrong with having aspirations |
|
Nothing wrong with walking tall |
|
But if misfortune deals the consequences |
|
Sooner or later, friend, you've got to fall |
|
I know the difference, and you keep your distance |
|
I don't wanna know what you've got |
|
Is it pathetic to be sympathetic? |
|
Maybe you don't wanna get caught |
|
Caught up in something that's real |
|
Could last for a lifetime |
|
Nothing like, nothing like the disease |
|
Disease that's in your mind |
|
Well, I know the difference |
|
There's nothing wrong with having aspirations |
|
Nothing wrong with walking tall |
|
But if misfortune deals the consequences |
|
Sooner or later, friend, you've got to fall |
|
Well, I can see your life disintegrating |
|
Into ashes in your hand |
|
And I know you wouldn't wanna tell me |
|
What is wrong 'cause you're a man |
|
And I can see the billboards in the distance |
|
Writing is on every wall |
|
I don't wanna know about your business |
|
Sooner or later, friend, you've got to fall |
|
You've got to fall |
|
You've got to fall |
|
You've got to fall |
