Standing Over You
There's a man at the backdoor
Got a special feel
Looking over his shoulder
Another hollow deal
Goin' to show you a mountain
Goin' to offer you pearls
Goin' to make you believe you can shake the world
Soft words of wisdom
Tender loving care
Gold watch gains an hour
Time to spare
Then they gave you a title
All the things you adore
Funny how you're as hungry as before
Like an eight-ball broken in two
Another hero standing over you
Standing over you
So they closed your number
Didn't like your style
Some off-duty business
In the private file
When they showed you a mountain
When they offered you pearls
Did you really believe you could change the world?
Like an eight-ball broken in two
Another hero standing over you
Standing over you
Would you give if you could?
Would you fall where you stood?
Would you shatter? Would it matter?
Would you lie down and die like you should?
Like an eight-ball broken in two
Another hero standing over you
Standing over you
Like an eight-ball broken in two
Another hero standing over you
Standing over you
Standing over you
Standing over you
Standing over you
Got a special feel
Looking over his shoulder
Another hollow deal
Goin' to show you a mountain
Goin' to offer you pearls
Goin' to make you believe you can shake the world
Soft words of wisdom
Tender loving care
Gold watch gains an hour
Time to spare
Then they gave you a title
All the things you adore
Funny how you're as hungry as before
Like an eight-ball broken in two
Another hero standing over you
Standing over you
So they closed your number
Didn't like your style
Some off-duty business
In the private file
When they showed you a mountain
When they offered you pearls
Did you really believe you could change the world?
Like an eight-ball broken in two
Another hero standing over you
Standing over you
Would you give if you could?
Would you fall where you stood?
Would you shatter? Would it matter?
Would you lie down and die like you should?
Like an eight-ball broken in two
Another hero standing over you
Standing over you
Like an eight-ball broken in two
Another hero standing over you
Standing over you
Standing over you
Standing over you
Standing over you
