Out comes the sun
Waiting for a cold rain to wash it away
Wash the pain into a blinding spillway
And she wants to never feel again
To never feel the steel of vain
The selfish those who's vanity tramples us whole
Stampeding the spirit under another deadening role
Are you proud? Are you glad? Not yet done?
So high are you, the self-important one!
So high are you….
Well I'm not finished with you yet...
No… not even close
Cause I've not even started on what I've got to do
I will take your crap for now...
But, don't stop and smell the view...
Cause I'm gonna overcome because of you!
Yeah, overcome because of you...
Gonna change my hot to cold...
Throw out the cards I know I hold...
...and watch as they beautifully unfold
Gonna take you like another grain of salt
And stop your cruel to a punishing halt
And you'll be walking right under my foot...
Yeah, downright under my brand new shoe...
Got the tools to chill the thrill in you...
Are you proud? Are you glad? Not yet done?
So high are you, the self-important one!
So high are you...
Well I'm not finished with you yet...
No… not even close
Cause I've not even started on what I've got to do
I will take your crap for now...
But, don't stop and smell the view...
Cause I'm gonna overcome because of you!
Yeah, overcome because of you...
And I'm gonna find myself in a place you don't yet see
Gonna seize back the pieces you thoughtlessly stole from me
And finally feel the peel from the shielding skin I once shelled with glue
Yeah, I'm gonna overcome because of you!
Yeah, overcome because of you...
Because of you...
