"Come on, see it from my point of view
Try standing in these worn out shoes
I'm not asking for your pity
Just some understanding
I've pushed myself this far
Only an inch from landing
Knowing that the best is behind you
I was disappointed to find out the hard way
We have met the enemy
And we know he is us (We must wake up)
We weave our own destiny
Or gone, we must
It's shining as bright as the sun
But it is black and I can't see it
It's strange, strange how
So much light brings so much dark along with it
Knowing that the best is behind you
I was disappointed to find out the hard way
We have met the enemy
And we know he is us
We weave our own destiny
Or gone, we must
We can pretend anyway
We can pretend
(Waiting for your eyes to open)
We have met the enemy
And we know he is us
We weave our own destiny
Or gone, we must
We must wake up!"
