A Great Man

(album: The Pride - 2012)

Sink burn or take her a prize
Let's not make this complicated
For a moment of complete silence
So many years I have waited
A heart & mind in a room confined
So much beautiful violence

One day I'll figure out how
To show you all my master plans
Someday I won't be just a shadow of a great man

I admit it I was wrong
My apology stretches so beyond this song
We all deserve a second chance
I'm only human, we all say things we don't mean

Save me a little oxygen
My lungs feel so deflated
Gazing up your stellar canvas
So many stars you've created
Orion rides Pegasus, a brand new legacy
Will you be my Andromeda?

You are a great man

You strip the sky away like it's a blanket
You poured the tears of joy in a cup & drank it
You're my cement
Binding the brick that surround my heart
I won't fall apart
'Cause I never want to fail you again
Now sing along my friends
