He only sees what he wants

It serves to fool and distract him

While slowly everything's haunted, cursed and stained



His temple that was his home

Showed itself as mere cold stone

To finally feel all alone is horribly purifying



[CHORUS:]

And it's doubt that fills my head

Dreadful doubt dripping in dread



Leave me to live in my own world

I've had enough of yours

Follow the program and make plans

To become self-assured

Didn't end up the golden champion

Ended up on the floor



[CHORUS]



[CHORUS]



Paid all the dues I could afford

But what was due me got lost

Found I had gained some small respect

But I get little more

They say if at first you don't succeed

Leave well enough alone

Could never live just for the dollar

'Cause life is only unknown
