Sixth In Line

Waited for a lifetime
For what was next to come
Stood in line a thousand times
And waded through the blood
I chose to never close my eyes,
In case the end was near
All things considered, compromised,
It was quite a year
So I stand sixth in line
Looking back at what quickly paralyzed
So I stand hypnotized
Now I can't believe my eyes
I fell as quickly as I rose
Into my sleep again
Waking up just terriifes me
Like it was never meant
I fear the worst - it was all a dream
And now I face the truth
It was all a mystery
And I don't have a clue
So I stand sixth in line
Looking back at what quickly paralyzed
So I stand hypnotized
Now I can't believe my eyes

Believe me when I tell you
It was the grandest scheme
But it was illegitimate,
It was a little bastard('s) dream
Patience after vengeance,
Virtue after reward
A million poets unrecognized drop the pen
And pull the sword
