Lyrics
I spent a year trying to slay some dragon Twelve months of searching just to find there never was one They raised their glasses and said I must have chased it away I bought the jargon and embraced my decision Took up the cause and tolerated all the friction And found redemption all depended on how much I could pay I felt enlightenment fade I'm a survivor of the holiest of wars One step a month till I'm not here anymore I got to be strong now 'cause it can be tough I'm a survivor of the holiest of wars One step a month till I'm not here anymore You're on your own now so don't mess it up I'm not a villain but I ain't no choirboy And there's a spark of hope inside me that I can't ignore I don't believe that it's healthier never to dream Looking back I see somehow I passed the empty test And try to understand that they did what they thought was best Somewhere they sit on their thrones and think I'm still on their team I know what I believe
