No matter who you are
No matter what you do
There's going to be someone
Wants something else from you
Yeah
This is an ancient test
It's a shiny lie
Discover something pure
Then sit and watch it die
Yeah
No matter who you are
No matter where you've been
No matter what you've done
You'll have to start again
No matter who you are
Between the soaring dream
And the bottom line
So much is given up
So much is left behind
Yeah
This is the price you pay
This is the beast you feed
When you abandon hope
And you give in to greed
No matter who you are
No matter who you've been
You'll have to sort it out
And start again
No matter who you are
No matter who you are
Don't take this wrong
Don't let it bring you down
It's just the way things work
In this great big town
Yeah
No matter who you are
No matter who you are
No matter who you are
