Someone Else's Dream

On this dark road I tread
 Of despair and regret
 Some days you long to forget
 Searching for the light
 Taking life one step at a time
 Walk a path that's only mine
 Shit happens, a kick to the teeth
 So look out for number one
 Some say I'm just a selfish man
 I say take hold of what you can
 Learn to swim before you drown
 Before life kicks you down
 On the seas of life I sail
 To find my way
 And never to return
 No self betrayal
 I won't live my life
 Living someone else's dream
 Some may say this pain is just an illusion
 Some say it's all in your mind
 Life builds us up to be proud
 Then cuts you down like an empty lie
 Find yourself in this tunnel again
 See the light: (is it) just another train?
 Finding shelter from the endless rain
 Sometimes you find yourself
 Always asking why...
 I drag myself to my feet
 And take what's rightly mine
