What's the latest trend you're jumping into
Don't bite off more than you can chew
It's your willingness to collapse yourself
That leaves your backbone on the shelf
When the time comes for leaving
Will you realize who's been grieving
Who will you see when you look in the mirror?
Is it you or can you face your fears?
Did the pressure break you
And will it undertake you?
Times come to figure out
Your life, it's coming up now
It's your identity that's lost
You'll never realize the cost
Twenty years from now sitting still
You'll be all alone, looking up that hill
When your anger comes from within
You know you can never can win
Sitting on the sidelines, picking up
Anything you can put in that cup
All these things aren't yours to take
Save your soul at the iron gate
Trade in all the chains that bind you
Turn around and look who's lied to you
Like the rain washes the dirt away
So will it ease your pain
Be yourself, people will see
That life has been good, get off your knees
It's your identity that's lost
You'll never realize the cost
Twenty years from now sitting still
You'll be all alone, looking up that hill
