Wise Man

So you think you're a wise man
And the world is your oyster
But you don't have the wit to know
Everyone see's through the mask
Crawl on your knees to your peers
And tremble alone in the night

Stand on your feet, dispose of the sham
Look straight in the eye as other men can
In hindsight regret is so easily found
But respect isn't cheap, respect isn't cheap,
No

I who have nothing
I stand alone with the sign in my hand
I reach out to other men's hearts
Destiny's holy last stand

You know there's something wrong
It's coming down on you
What you gonna do?
So you won't feel blue
How you gonna feel
When it's all gone wrong
When you can't take the strain
Who will take the blame
Think of all the shame
Think of all the waste
Think of your disgrace
Think of all the pain
There's nothing else to gain
Be sure there's no regret
There'll be another time
There'll be another place
Settled in your mind
And settled in your heart

Settled in your heart
You know it's settled in your heart
Whoa yeah yeah
Whoa yeah yeah

Wise man
