Blood, sweat, all the tears, flashing by goes all those years
Heart is thumping, have you done it right?
Sitting there with so much time, all those dummies join the line
Is this what your life was meant to be?
Following your wildest dreams where everyone is King & Queen
No-one there anchoring your ship
Hanging in by just a thread, this is not what was said
“This is what your life was meant to be”
Then you stop, spit it out of good and bad that’s still to come and you
Stop the winding tape, to admire what you’ve done
And the crown that’s on your head, with the wind from the sea,
There’s nowhere that you’d rather be
Sailing through stormy winds, people stand proud of their sins
Do I stand next to them in line?
All I’ve ever thought for me was staying clam, breaking free
But now those demons are buoyed up in my mind
Following my wildest dream where everyone was King & Queen
With no-one there, anchoring their ships
Hanging in by just a thread, but that’s alright you know instead
The way you see and think will get you through
Then you stop, spit it out of good and bad that’s still to come and you
Stop the winding tape, to admire what you’ve done
And the crown that’s on your head, with the wind from the sea,
There’s nowhere that you’d rather be
