So what if you've conquered the tallest mountain
And attained all that could be attained?
So what if you've reached the top of the ladder
Only to find yourself a little sadder?
So what if you've climbed to the tallest stair
Simply to find you've lost a friend so rare?
Contemplate what has been lost in your push to the goal
Friends gone and your heart turned cold
Ambition and greed is an infinite abyss
Possessing them is a tremendous risk
Many people desire sucess
Which they think they can have no excess
However they have not thought
That it is lonely at the top
