“Grandeur”
… nobody’s gonna run your race for you. When you step up into that batter’s box you’re all alone! And you either strike out or hit. We live in a time when people think somebody else can live our lives for us, think for us. You alone run that race, you alone are in that ball game. That’s the language of American individualism. If you want to be a champion you’ve got to analyze yourself. You’ve got to recognize your weakness. And you’ve got to change that weakness into power.
Started with a dream in a small town
Traded it all away, only call now
Pickin’ myself up just to fall down
Pieces of myself scattered all around
And all the king’s horses and all of his men
Can’t put my soul back together again
Darkness surrounds me but this ain’t the end
The desolate silence has become my friend
Illusions of grandeur
These illusions of grandeur
Thinkin’ life’s so much better than this
But it ain’t much better
And I don’t wanna fall down
And I don’t wanna break myself, I’m weak
Is this the life I wanted
Or is this life just killing me
With illusions of grandeur
These illusions of grandeur
Thinkin’ life’s so much better than this
But it ain’t much better
And I just need to love my life again
I don’t wanna worry ’bout the end
I’m tired of the pointless grinding mind
And all these crazy voices in my head
Tellin’ me I’m wrong and I can’t carry on
Lose it for a second but a second’s way too long
I hope I made a difference now
Illusions of grandeur
These illusions of grandeur
Thinkin’ life’s so much better than this
But it ain’t much better
And I don’t wanna fall down
And I don’t wanna break myself, I’m weak
Is this the life I wanted
Or is this life just killing me
With illusions of grandeur
These illusions of grandeur
Thinkin’ life’s so much better than this
But it ain’t much better
