Dying in a Moment of Splendor (live) Lyrics

I am a hero. I am an actor
I'm this violent shade of blue
I am newly discovered tension
Still confused by yesterday
I am a hero on a mission
Staking claims, yielding none
I am an artist with a vision
Seeing hell, his destiny
I know the simple sting of a tear
Sends the star crashing to earth

Dying in a moment of splendor
For a moment the glory and the death are one the same
I am an actor. So unfeeling
Then a flower, I am crushed
I am a villain, unstable and anguished
Then an angel, you trust
The heartless echo of memory
Sends the actor whirling twirling, falling to his knees
Dying in a moment of splendor
For a moment the glory and the death are one the same

I am a bubble, almost to bursting
Swollen by unrelinquishing pride
I am the shrinking remains of potential
Never growing as I should

Dying in a moment of splendor
For a moment the glory and the death are one the same
