I've always done

what's right for me

I never asked for sympathy, compassion

I've always offered

what it takes

to fit the frame my

mirror makes



I always thought

I had the key

to be the man

I wanna be

but now I know

I'll never find

the man who lived

inside my mind



Falling, I'm falling

I'm one step behind



My dream was

my way,

so precious, so plain

a lifetime in vain

the tide is on time

and water confines

the dream of my life



May be my versatility

absorbed all common

sense in me

I thought the word

was mine to keep

by dint of my authority

I swear I'd perish

at the stake

to pay the price

for my mistakes

but now my time is

running low

I've lived on a visions

far too long



Falling, I'm falling

I'm one step behind



My dream was

my way,

so precious, so plain

a lifetime in vain

the tide is on time

and water confines

the dream of my life



Hope my misery

doesn't show

shady memories

won't let go

sometimes, when

the crazy thunder

roams my head

I can only prey

that somehow

my dream's to blame

My dream was

my way,

so precious, so plain

a lifetime in vain

the tide is on time

and water confines

the dream of my life
