lyrics

a lit cigarette in your hand
an old coffee stain on your pad
you surveyed a deep horizon
from a throne inside your head
from a lectern on a stage
from a peak far out of range
read the tablets on the mountain
wrote the words that filled the page

and you, you knew it was right
and you, you never gave up the fight
and you, you never lost track or sight
and that's good
so they made you
the cuckold of titan

one day they pulled a knife
like some unfaithful wife
and made somebody else their darling
just to complicate your life
now the twain won't ever meet
but you cannot accept defeat
will a posthumous ambition
light a coal that warms your nights

tastes change, tastes change

just a pilgrim on the road
writing from a bed of gloom
while trophies and their tarnish
fill the walls inside your room
