Ambition

Ambition remains I decide not to waste this high Fools can call me dirt Flightless birds they die all the same Captured by the world Lights heights, temptation to give in Thoughts of losing it all Gain appeal, they gain appeal once more Intrude Ambition remains Moments die shall never be revived You have been so weak Yet you decline help you need Captivated eyes Perverted lights of science ruling life Thoughts of losing it all Gain appeal, they gain appeal once more Intrude Ambition made us forget What is life? Needs/wants I see you there and you're standing by the stair Desires, multiplied, more to hide A failure Ambition made us forget What is life? Needs/wants I see you there and you're standing by the stair Desires, multiplied, more to hide A failure Ambition remains I feel it now more than I did before Needs under control New temptation must never take a hold I dare you to think For yourself not for anyone else Killing fields can sing Losing it all gains appeal once more Intrude Ambition made us forget What is life? Needs/wants I see you there and you're standing by the stair Desires, multiplied, more to hide A failure Ambition made us forget What is life? Needs/wants I see you there and you're standing by the stair Desires, multiplied, more to hide A failure Flowing out Free and lost The words arrive Like an old friend I regret every footstep Forward to a place I can call home
