It takes a lot

To get to the top

And a little just to fall from it

And I think I've seen you here before



Sometimes you fly so high

So fast it makes you sick

You won the battle and lost the war



And I don't mind if you say

Everytime you talk to me (everytime we talk)

We came, we saw, we conquered and crumbled

In our own true way



We loved, we fought,

We rocked and we tumbled

In our own true way (x2)



Well I believe in the brotherhood

And the good of all mankind

But I admit

It's hard to find



But if you want to talk

Just come and talk

It don't matter what the time

Solitude is no friend of mine



And I don't mind if you say

Everytime you talk to me (everytime we talk)

We came, we saw, we conquered and crumbled

In our own true way



We loved, we fought,

We rocked and we tumbled

In our own true way (x2)



It's hard to be

From a rock in the sea

Living in a big steel town

Finding unfamiliar faces all around



You heard 'em telling stupid jokes

You heard 'em laugh everytime you spoke

But you don't let 'em put you down



And I don't mind if you say

Everytime you talk to me (x4)

We came, we saw, we conquered and crumbled

In our own true way



We loved, we fought,

We rocked and we tumbled

In our own true way (x2)
