The Grave

I once asked a wise man to show me the way He said life's like a song Gets written each day It's better to listen Then choose how to play So sit back and choose wisely what you'd like to say Now stand up young man Tell me what you see One million faces one million dreams Each one the same but each one unique To think yours is more worthy seems selfish to me Burning them bridges tearing down the walls What friend will you have when you haven't one at all It's your life to choose It's your life to save Old bones get buried and lost in the grave Now listen young man Tell me what you hear One million waves crashing as a storm chasers near Two hearts growing distant to see from a far They're lost in confusion as their worlds fall apart Burning them bridges tearing down the walls What friend will you have if you haven't one at all It's your life to choose It's your life to save Old bones get buried and lost in the grave Now show me young man Show me what you've learned That trust is precious It's something that's earned All knowledge and power well it won't answer why All fortune and fame well it won't make you well My love is endless an endless supply And my love for you Will never die Never die Burning them bridges tearing down the walls What friend will you have when you haven't one at all It's your life to choose It's your life to save Old bones get buried Old bones get buried And lost in the grave
