You must be getting pretty tired
Of the man who once inspired you
Going back on what he asked you to believe
All the promises of power
From his glittering ivory tower
Where's the height that he once told you you'd achieve?
Well, those other men believe
What you and I will never see
But I say why believe in place of proof?
Let those others keep on praying
You know I'm only saying
What the others are afraid might be the truth
Well, they say nothing grows
Till the oak has hit the ground
So let's clear the way, my boys
And let the giant come crashing down
Where are all the things you fought for?
All the dreams you shed your blood for?
Are they shabby now and fraying at the seams?
Was this your boyhood vision?
To endure the world's derision
While the culprit sits and laughs behind the scenes?
