Anthem [All the World’s a Stage] Lyrics
Know that your place in life
Is where you want to be
Don’t let them tell you that
You owe it all to me
Keep on looking forward
No use in looking round
Carry your head above the crowd
And they won’t bring you down
Anthem of the heart and mind
A funeral dirge for eyes gone blind
We marvel after those who sought
New wonders in the world they wrought
Live for yourself, there’s no one else
More worth living for
Begging hands and bleeding hearts
Will only cry for more
Though I know they’ve always
Told you selfishness is wrong
Yet it was for me not you
I came to write this song
Is where you want to be
Don’t let them tell you that
You owe it all to me
Keep on looking forward
No use in looking round
Carry your head above the crowd
And they won’t bring you down
Anthem of the heart and mind
A funeral dirge for eyes gone blind
We marvel after those who sought
New wonders in the world they wrought
Live for yourself, there’s no one else
More worth living for
Begging hands and bleeding hearts
Will only cry for more
Though I know they’ve always
Told you selfishness is wrong
Yet it was for me not you
I came to write this song
