Lyrics

	And just who are you, anyway
	The question comes yet once again
	With absolute uncertainty
	You're living out the life of ten

	See that reflection in the window
	The cover of a magazine
	You think that clears it up somehow
	And just what's that supposed to mean

	There is nothing to be frightened for
	And everything to fear, and more
	You've no idea, I've no idea
	And nothing renders nothing clear

	I knew that it was preordained
	To make this journey on my own
	With towering mentors far behind
	I'll storm these castle walls alone

	(Music)

	And I honour those that bear the signs
	Not of marketing's design
	But those truly feel the sting
	That truly are the songs they sing

	Oh God, as I approach the gate
	And as I lay me down to tape
	Protect me from my sense of self
	Keep my motives clear and straight
	Do not forgive me should I fail
	There is no life after the sale

	(Music)

	And it does not matter why I'm here
	I really do not need to know
	I will trust that there's a deeper plan
	Than anything that I've been shown

	For better or for worse，Despite
	the triumph, failure, love, despair
	I'm moving with the speed of light
	Blowing wildly through my hair

	Don't worry about me, I'm doing fine
	I'll be ok outside the lines
	Just watch for me when this is done
	In the still where wars resign

	Do not look for me in angry seas
	Beyond the storm is where I'll be
	And know that, as I drift away
	It was my choosing in the end

	To live the life of ten

	And just who are you, anyway
	The question comes yet once again
	With absolute uncertainty
	You' re living out the life of ten

	See that reflection in the window
	The cover of a magazine
	You think that clears it up somehow
	And just what' s that supposed to mean

	There is nothing to be frightened for
	And everything to fear, and more
	You' ve no idea, I' ve no idea
	And nothing renders nothing clear

	I knew that it was preordained
	To make this journey on my own
	With towering mentors far behind
	I' ll storm these castle walls alone
