Where you start determines how far you go
And success is based just on who you know
In this town, you're either up or you're down
you're the king or you're just hanging around
Life is cruel, to everyone but a few
who gain success at the dreams they pursue
Giving up, a fickle choice, sometimes wise
what's the use, of a million tries?
The only thing I ever thought was magic
is the only thing I'll never get to be
so take this world from me
the droll monotony
the working endlessly
i'm giving up
yes take it all away
I don't care what you say
the book of yesterday
lets burn it up
Everything you ever knew was a lie
Everyone you ever loved's gonna die
They own the world
I was born in you see
All they want is to rent it to me
The only thing I ever thought was magic
Is the only thing I'll never get to be
So take this world from me.
