The Human Abstract
The Path
To hit the mark, to bring the rain
To take a climb, the path to fame
I sat dreaming alone, then it came out of nowhere
An all too familiar voice with a false face
The voice of the jealous
It's less than encouraging, the walls have been closing in
Though in droves the masses came, years from now they'll say:

From the way out, from the way out
Fools rushing over the hills
There to watch him fall, there to watch him fall
From the way out, from the way out
Fools rushing over the hills
There to watch him fall, there to watch him fall

And there amidst a sleepless night it came to me
Endurance, endurance, it came to me
And now nothing can stop me or keep me in line
Get out of the way as I take to the sky

It's hard to discern all the motives I see
One thing's for sure
When the crowds have dispersed and forgotten me
And forgotten their dreams, I'll still be all that I am
I am more than a clown for you
Hear me, and know it to be true
From the way out, from the way out
Fools rushing over the hills
There to watch him fall, there to watch him fall
From the way out, from the way out
Fools rushing over the hills
There to watch him fall, there to watch him fall
