Lyrics:
When you first started outBegan this episodeYou had nothing but doubtWhat did the future hold?You hardly knew the worldPerhaps you never willJaded at twenty fourYou thought you'd had your fillAlong the road you mightHave missed your share of turnsStood in the fire's lightReceived your share of burnsI wish your eyes would openAnd you might findWe swam a common oceanOne stroke behindLostThe illusion of controlThe delusion of your soulLife will take its tollLostMessing with your mindHappens every timeHolding on tonightYou are much older nowTime makes a person wiseAnd yet in many waysYou wear the same disguiseA certain golden ruleYou fail to ascertainYour little fantasiesCan never dull the painThey never had your loveThey only held you backYou take no hostagesWhen you attackThe world's your enemyAnd so you scream and shoutYou got the last word inThat's all you care aboutLostThe illusion of controlThe delusion of your soulLife will take its tollLostMessing with your mindHappens every timeHolding on tonight
