You gave it up to give it down   What it was that gave you definition   You'll say for what?   Besides the will to give in to temptation      Think of what your asking for   It's only right that it hurts more than it should   To remain select and understood      So let me tell you it's cold out there   At the top of the world   You look alone and scared   With nothing to hold      You're being black and blue   When you coulda been gold   So let me tell you it's cold out there   At the top of the world   (Here at the top of the world)      I've always heard that the good die young   There's little time left to prove them wrong   You burnt the bride that you're walked here on   Here at the top      Tonight we save the world   Today we have to save ourselves   We have to save ourselves from losing   On what we pride ourselves on choosing      It's all that's left that we can depend on   But it gets to hard to have an opinion   On the loyalties unspoken   And the thoughts that can't be broken      So let me tell you it's cold out there   At the top of the world   You look alone and scared   With nothing to hold      You're being black and blue   When your coulda been gold   So let me tell you it's cold out there   At the top of the world   (Here at the top of the world)      I've always heard that the good die young   There's little time left to prove them wrong   You burnt the bride that you're walked here on   Here at the top of the world      Tonight   Here at the top of the world   Tonight   Here at the top of the world      Rise or die   Here at the top of the world   Rise or die   Here at the top of the world      Here at the top of the world   Here at the top of the world      Rise or die   Here at the top of the world   Rise or die   Here at the top of the world
