|
Do not use the past as an alibi |
|
For all of your deficiencies always standing by |
|
Face your negligence, do not fool yourself |
|
Shortcomings will soon appear |
|
for weakness shows itself |
|
Blind from your success and all of the excess |
|
Deaf from the praise you had |
|
Don't cry out of self pity in forcing your way through |
|
Blind from your success and all of the excess |
|
Deaf from the praise you had |
|
In a misty veil, misplaced |
|
Where castles in the air will be no longer seen |
|
As something out of reach |
|
In time the dream will be erased |
|
So many things will never be |
|
The way they seemed |
|
And pride will have it's fall at last |
|
Her eyes fell |
|
While the shame was written on her face |
|
When she realised that her failures |
|
could never, could never be undone again |
|
You did not notice the manipulated hand |
|
That overshadowed your thoughts all those years |
|
That made you insecure |
|
You did not notice the ancient shifting sand |
|
That pulls you down into an everlasting sham |
|
You will never be able to fight |
|
Never be able to hide |
|
Run for a fall, you'd better run |
|
Blind from your success and all of the excess |
|
Deaf from the praise you had |
|
Oh, in a misty veil, misplaced |
|
Where castles in the air will be no longer seen |
|
As something out of reach |
|
In time the dream will be erased |
|
So many things will never be |
|
The way they seemed |
|
And pride will have it's fall at last |
