Once upon a time...
I thought I was different.
Thought I was special.
Thought I had talent.
Justified ambition.
Guess not.
Where'd I come up with that?
Once upon a time...
I thought I was important.
Thought I made a difference.
Thought my efforts mattered.
Unique execution.
Guess not.
When'd I start thinkin' that?
Once upon a time...
I thought I could change the outcome.
Thought I could be the savior.
Knew I could live with purpose.
Fulfilling grand destiny.
Guess not.
Why'd I ever believe that?
Delusional Hero, here at your service...sorry if I seem depressed.
Spare me your pity.
Listen well, know my folly;
Once...
...I actually thought I mattered.
