Comes a time in every young man's life
To muscle up and leave small joys behind
Bite your tongue and close your wandering eyes
So you can follow the lead
Come to me when I'm alone at night
Feel it burning as the stars collide
Guide the way as they turn out the lights
I think I'll follow their lead
Run the cost of every chance you spent
Decisions lost in their consequence
And you can roll it off your tongue and let it hang from your lips
Try to swallow your pride
And one day they'll carve my name in stone
I'll close my eyes and rest my weary bones
Off to find another great unknown
And you can follow my lead
