I'll wait for someone I know To tell me straight where I ought to go It's the road less travelled, it's a tale unravelled Wrapped again in what we call a lie If you can't be heard in the written word You have to wonder why If I can't fake it and you can't take it all on you Then Atlas was a myth, or a man, but no hero Can't wait forever I know It's getting late and I need something to show For my endeavours, my success and failures Balanced out by creeping march of time I'll fall on my sword just to be ignored And lay it on the line If I can't fake it and you can't take it all on you Then Atlas was a myth, or a man, but no hero And I'm not saying I could do better But I can do better than you You could say that I'm being clever But I'm being clever for you
