lyrics

It starts with a wish. Slips into a dream. Grows into your hopes and wants and goals and suddenly, it's something you need.
I turns and it builds, in your head and your heart. You're never the same as you once were. It wakes you up to all that you are.

And with so many in this world, there can't be something for all of them. I feel it breaking my heart. I fear you're breaking my heart.

I went underground. Tired of playing the game. I couldn't bare the sound of my spinning wheels and the sight, when nothing would change.

And with so many in this world, I can't expect to be one of them. I feel it breaking my heart. I fear you're breaking my heart.

Hey, I've been here for a long long time, cause you told me time will tell. And now you're telling me time is up? Is that what you're telling me?
Oh common, you know that I've been here through a long long line, just to get my piece of it. And now you're telling me nothing's left? Is that what you're telling me?

And I feel selfish I feel sick to my stomach now cause I wanna be the one. Oh how godless I've become. Cause there's just so many in this world, and I wanna stand on top of it all, while they struggle to hold me up.
