By order of reason and with reason to be
Face to face and nothing there to see
What were the reasons
Will I someday understand
Fate points out this new direction
Nothing left here to defend at all
Half of my ambition
Was to be a completed man
The loss of my connection on this plain
Where I'll make my stand
I knew my proposition would be pointedly ignored
Well baby check this new position
As I'm walkin' out the door
Nothing lives here any more
That's for sure
Delusions of grandeur with delusions to spare
How the chains that bind us so quickly can vanish into thin air
And did I hear you laughing at my painful naïveté
What a sight this hopeful jackass
A hambone artist on the bray
Touché
Half of my affection
Was so much more than you deserved
Your lack of recollection
At how your vanity was served
But this new intuition
It's the key that will get me by
No more pointless competition
Cause I'm telling you goodbye
Spirit soaring through the sky
No last try
Half of my ambition
Oh to be a completed man
The loss of my connection on this plain
Now I'll take my stand
I knew my proposition would be pointedly ignored
Well baby check this new position
As I'm walkin' out the door
Nothing lives here any more
That's for sure
