Once I wanted to be the greatest

No wind or waterfall could stop me And then came the rush of the flood The stars at night turned you to dust
Melt me down

To big black armour

Leave no trace

Of grace Just in your honor Lower me down

That corporate slob

Make a watch

For a space in town

For the lack of the drugs

My faith had been sleeping Lower me down In the end Secure the grounds

For the later parade

Once I wanted to be the greatest

Two faced, sad little rock

When things I couldn't explain Any feelings Lower me down In the end

Secure the grounds

For the lack of the drugs

My faith had been sleeping

For the later parade

Once I wanted to be the greatest

No wind or water fall could stop me

And then came the rush of the flood

The stars at night turned you to dust
