Delusions of Grandeur
Oh my, oh my
Am I in over my head
Watching as my dreams
Expand beyond my bed
And I'll try, I'll try
To push my way ahead
I will not be misled
Go my own way instead
Letting ideas bake
Before they turn into bread
What if I'm scared, not excited
Extinguished, not ignited
Now that I feel my future has begun?
What if I take the time I need
With my plans and I succeed, but
It still feels like a waste when it's done?
That's why I have to remind myself
(Remind yourself)
Don't get caught up in their attention
(Don't get caught up in that)
Somehow maintain my mental health
(Your mental health)
Before I lose sight of what's left of me
In my fantasy I dream
They're whispering that I'm the next new thing
When all I want is just to save my soul
Before delusions of grandeur have taken control
Yeah, delusions of grandeur have taken control
Oh my, oh my
Don't think that I should grieve
During the moments that I
Briefly feel my ego leave
And I'll try, I'll try
To enjoy the reprieve
I will not be naïve
Can't let ego achieve
Before I've lost my way
With thought that only I believe
What if I'm scared, not excited
Extinguished, not ignited
Now that I feel my future has begun?
What if I take the time I need
With my plans and I succeed, but
It still feels like a waste when it's done?
That's why I have to remind myself
(Remind yourself)
Don't get caught up in their attention
(Don't get caught up in that)
Somehow maintain my mental health
(Your mental health)
Before I lose sight of what's left of me
In my fantasy I dream
They're whispering that I'm the next new thing
When all I want is just to save my soul
Before delusions of grandeur have taken control
Delusions of grandeur have taken control
Delusions of grandeur have taken control
And the musical break drops, like
That's why I have to remind myself
Don't get caught up in their attention
(Don't get caught up in that)
Somehow maintain my mental health
(Your mental health)
Before I lose sight of what's left of me
In my fantasy I dream
They're whispering that I'm the next new thing
When all I want is just to save my soul
Before delusions of grandeur have taken control
Am I in over my head
Watching as my dreams
Expand beyond my bed
And I'll try, I'll try
To push my way ahead
I will not be misled
Go my own way instead
Letting ideas bake
Before they turn into bread
What if I'm scared, not excited
Extinguished, not ignited
Now that I feel my future has begun?
What if I take the time I need
With my plans and I succeed, but
It still feels like a waste when it's done?
That's why I have to remind myself
(Remind yourself)
Don't get caught up in their attention
(Don't get caught up in that)
Somehow maintain my mental health
(Your mental health)
Before I lose sight of what's left of me
In my fantasy I dream
They're whispering that I'm the next new thing
When all I want is just to save my soul
Before delusions of grandeur have taken control
Yeah, delusions of grandeur have taken control
Oh my, oh my
Don't think that I should grieve
