Do not use the past as an alibi
For all of your deficiencies
Always standing by

Face your negligence
Do not fool yourself
Shortcomings will soon appear
For weakness shows itself

Blind from your success
And all of the excess
Deaf from the praise you had

In a misty veil, misplaced
Where castles in the air will be
No longer seen
As something out of reach

In time the dream will be erased
So many things will never be
The way they seemed
And pride will have its fall
At last

Don't cry out of self pity
In forcing your way through
For I will not be vulnerable
To slander made by you

Blind from your success
And all of the excess
Deaf from the praise you had

In a misty veil, misplaced
Where castles in the air will be
No longer seen
As something out of reach

In time the dream will be erased
So many things will never be
The way they seemed
And pride will have its fall

In a misty veil, misplaced
Where castles in the air will be
No longer seen
As something out of reach

In time the dream will be erased
So many things will never be
The way they seemed
And pride will have its fall
At last
