The brighter they shine, the darker their shadow
In which wealth is created
Industrious efforts conceal, protect returns on investment

That the higher they will get means the harder they will fall
The harder they will fall

Aiming at perpetual growth

An unheard plea for cleansing by fire
This flickering light is the glimmer of hope
That the higher they will get means the harder they will fall

The harder they fall
The harder they fall
The harder they fall
The harder they fall
