There they go again
Trying to reach the stars
Practically beggin'
For more of the battle scars"We can achieve greatness"
They say,
But when it all goes wrong
They flee in all their hastinessClimbing, Climbing
Getting higher every day
With all their ambition
You think they would learnThat they've just signed it
The petition
That opens the gates
To be ashes in an urnThe cold and the black
Is where the want to be
So no cutting of the slack
Because they can workWorking towards their own end
And down go the devils they send Upon themselves
That will be the reason they seeHow they are the bane
Of their own existence
They were even given a name
But decided to throw themselvesDown into the unknown
With a smile on their face
Until they learn
The mistakes of their race
