Hey you with the world on your shoulders Do you find it hard to deal With growing expectations And a vision that isn't real? Are you tired of looking in the mirror To only see a ghost For a day in the sun the person you've come Is the person you hate the most You walk the streets of gold But the living bleeds you dry It casts you in a hole Where dreams go to die Hey you with the stars in your eyes Do you find it hard to sleep When your plans aren't coming together Cuz of promises you can't keep The promise of another revolution The pride before the fall You stuck up for the masses, you stood up for your friends But now you hate them all. And you walk the streets of gold But the living bleeds you dry It casts you in a hole Where dreams go to die "Don't let your doubts pull your strings." "Nothing lasts forever", Said the victim in denial. "Sure as the thought of failure stings", "Nothing lasts forever when you're dead upon arrival"
