We live and we learn We dream then we die We stop in concern While chances keep on passing us by We're looking to others And living a lie Why even bother All this effort just to get by We're placing the pieces We're playing the game We watch as it ceases Looking back at what we became No one is special We're all just the same With all to lose and nothing to gain There's a line in the sand that you cannot cross So quench your desire, desire Don't be fooled by a dream there's no way that You will get any higher, higher There's a chance you'll get burned so it's better to Extinguish your fire, your fire And whoever tells you to go follow your dream Is a liar, a liar (A liar) There's no way of taking Before we receive The future we're making Is in the fabric we weave Don't let no one tell you What you should believe There's no limit to what you can achieve There's a line in the sand that you cannot cross So quench your desire, desire Don't be fooled by a dream there's no way that You will get any higher, higher There's a chance you'll get burned so it's better to Extinguish your fire, your fire And whoever tells you to go follow your dream Is a liar, a liar It's not enough, this can't be all It's not enough, don't let me fall It's not enough, I won't give up until I climb atop this wall It's not enough, this can't be all It's not enough, don't let me fall It's not enough, you can beat me around But you'll never see me crawl You'll never see me crawl There's a line in the sand that you cannot cross So quench your desire, desire Don't be fooled by a dream there's no way that You will get any higher, higher There's a chance you'll get burned so it's better to Extinguish your fire, your fire And whoever tells you to go follow your dream Is a liar, a liar (A liar, a liar, a liar)
