You got a lot to learn

You play in the fire...you might get burned

You gotta sacrifice

You're playin' the victim of your own device

You try to understand

The comb-in-the-ashes isn't what you planned

You...it gets you every time

You're chasin' the visions--they're nowhere to find





Learn how to give...learn how to take

Learn how to live before it's too late





You got the restless eyes

They turn to distraction--there's no compromise

You gotta take some time

And fight for the answers--they're hard to find

You..now don'tcha fantasize

Start makin' your chances materialize





Learn how to bend...learn how to break

Learn how to mend broken heartaches

Learn to forgive...learn how to wait

Learn how to live before it's too late





Run from the light, and you lock all your doors

It's harder to fight when you've gone down before

The scene's 're so right--but they play out so wrong

So into the night it goes on and on and on and on and on
