Ashes to ashes
  That's how it ends
  You go from heartache to heartache
  As you make amends
  Just bigger and bigger
  You take two steps back
  You want something from nothing
  And you're so exact
    You think you're a rich man
  Now you misbehave
  You're not a free man running
  Just a comfortable slave
    [Chorus:]
  So selfish
  You got more than you can use
  But you still don't see
  You're so selfish
  And you're running out of room
    Deeper and deeper
  As you forge ahead
  You go higher and higher
  But you've been mislead
  Harder and harder
  You grind the stone
  Faster faster faster
  Till you're skin and bones
    Too much ambition
  Without relief
  You know that ain't heaven
  But it's what you teach
    [Chorus]
    [Instrumental break]
    Who's got the answer
  Give me the cure
  Don't rush to judgement
  Until you're sure
    [Repeat chorus two times]
