Lyrics

What will it take for you to learn
That all your actions
Are coupled with reactions?
(You might not see it now.)
You're right to hold your standards high
But when the others just miss
Is it right to dismiss?
(They're trying as hard as you.)

Won't you cut them a little slack
Or stand and watch them choke?
What gives you the right
To cut them down
When they're reaching for
The same stars that you are?

( Chorus )
Tear down your walls
You're not keeping anyone
From entering you city limits
The tide is rushing in
As the ocean greets your shores
And you become an island

What goes around
Comes back around
Hope what you put forward
Is everything you hoped for
(It pays ten to one in time.)
Your world revolves around your head
And when it stops spinning
You'll find that you've been living
(All alone, nowhere to go.)
Should I cut you a little slack
Or stand and watch you choke?
What gives you the right
To cut them down
When they're reaching for
The same stars that you are?

( Chorus )

You'll learn as you live
You'll get as you give
Stop to think before you
Burn your bridges
It's never too late
To redirect fate
It's in your court

What will it take for you to learn?
Just stop to think yeah
Before you burn, you burn, you burn
