Song Lyrics

Cardboard Ladders

Ladders made of cardboard
That I try to climb
Up a slippery mountain
With no other side

So what about this mountain
Is it really there?
Or am I just seeing things?
There`s nothing there

So tell me
What good will it be for a woman
To gain the whole world
And lose her soul

And all the caterpillars
In their hurried piles
Wanna make a million (gonna make it)
They`ll have to leave behind in dust

`Cause all our days are numbered
Round and round we go
In our own agendas
Not recognizing gold

So tell me
What good will it be for a man
To gain the whole world
So tell me
What good will it be for a woman
To gain the whole world
And lose her soul

I can`t keep turning my back on
I can`t keep turning my back on
The horizon
I can`t keep turning my back on (the horizon)
I can`t keep turning my back on
The horizon
I can`t keep turning my back on (the horizon)
I can`t keep turning my back on

Surrender
Surrender
Surrender
Surrender
Surrender

In the crooked tunnels
Hallways closing in
Remember where you`re going
Remember where you`ve been

(Remember that I love you
Remember that I love you
Remember that I love you)

I`ll tell you
What good could it be for a woman
To gain the whole world
Tell me
What good will it be for a man
To gain the whole world
And lose his soul
