Educated to be an asshole
this is my distress call
as the city looks up at me with envy
Seated in a boardroom
filled with aristocratic goons
Crying out depravity
Urge for success
is the true meaning of loneliness
searching the city for one night stands
I use and deceive
Self satisfactory aim to please
Such a broken man
Climb to the top
step by step the good people
they crumble and drop
Now at the peak of my career
Making the skyline appear
As the horizon clouds the world with fear
What have I truly achieved
Besides permanent enemies
Success is such a disease
Time to make changes
Wake up and realize
there's more importance to life
Drive down to Boston
run for a cause
escape from the past
(bombs blast)
Now at the marathon finish line
I start to appreciate life
as death flashes before my eyes
