The Endless Chase Lyrics

When youth is just a memory

And you belong nowhere

You belong nowhere but within

Nowhere but within

It may be hard to stop and figure

That wisdom is knowing

The less you belong the more you're free

The less you belong the more you're free

To escape the endless chase to succeed

You learn from a young age

Labour dignifies a man

Everyday battles

Are what will give you strength

Work hard, don't be a slob

Idle hands are the devil's workshop

Settle for straight A' s

Despise the unproductive

Hear a round of applause

To legitimate your progress

Fly higher, set the pace

Be above, be a pride for the human race

Ubiquitous meritocracy

We're born wired to compete

Watch the quitters quit

When the illusion collapses

And all hope is gone

Will you sell your faith

For a quick salvation?

And run unopposed

For a throne of tyranny

When all is said and done

You just do as you please

When lovers and friends

Become casualties

Will you hide in your fortress

And pray for your wallet?

Or fight all the horror

And die with your brothers?
