Late at night it's kind of early for making promises But I'll try to keep them all So when it's hard and when it's easier And when it's adventurous I just need to know you know You know I was standing at the staircase Staring into space I thought I had it all Just try to do it your way You'll make a lot of friends You'll make a lot of foes On your own it can be easier to do things for a while But these traps don't catch their own So with all this distraction And with all of my empty words I will give you all of my soldier's hearts I was standing at the staircase Staring into space I thought I had it all Just try to do it your way You'll make a lot of friends You'll make a lot of foes Standing at the staircase Staring into space I thought I had it So I'll climb a little higher And I'll reach a little closer to you I'll step a little higher 'Cause you said it's not over I was standing at the staircase Staring into space I thought I had it all Just try to do it your way You'll make a lot of friends You'll make a lot of foes Now I'm standing at the staircase Staring into space I thought I had it all Just try to do it your way I've made a lot of friends, I've made a lot of foes
