I'll teach you how to fall. It's something you'll master in time.
Measure life by your wealth, possessions and status

Then climb, make your name; understand the game,
fortune and fame, leave behind the tame.
Once you've reached the heights, turn to see the lights
dim on the youth that you've sold.

Then cry! You neglected your blood for your goals.
Strive! There's value in [bad word]  and kindness. Strive!

Turn focus now on your path, the dangling carrot is there.
Just pass by those who care and reach for lesser things.

Climb, make your name; understand the game,
fortune and fame, leave behind the tame.
Once you've reached the heights, turn to see the lights
dim on the youth that you've sold.

Then cry! You neglected your blood for your goals.
Strive! So much for [bad word]  and kindness. Strive.

There's got to be something I missed in between.
There's got to be happiness I should have seen.
There's got to be something I missed in between.
There's got to be, got to be...
There's got to be something I missed in between.
More than this "Nothing" that's growing in me.
There's got to be something I missed in between.
More than this nothing...

Mortgage your time, refinance your sold,
Trade peace of mind, look at the life that you sold.

Then cry! You neglected your blood for your goals.
Strive! So much for [bad word]  and kindness. Strive!
