Story behind the song
It's about some guy I knew who started out on the road to success but ended up watching on the shore as his ship passed by. He waved. And then he blew his brains out. But that part isn't in the song.
Lyrics
He called it quits Just before his ship went sailing by How could he know that This was the ride he'd been waiting for? Everything always ended up in disappointment Why should this have been any different Than before? He closed the door And locked himself in And watched as the time of his life Slipped away He would fight the fight He would hold his own He would be creative in the battle zone He was tough as nails He was sensitive But it wore him down And his life began to dim Now he wears the scars of all The years that slipped away He thinks he's lost everything He ever thought he was living for A wife and kids, happiness? They take the place of fame He must open up his eyes And see what the new new world has in store And let go of the past Enjoy his life And watch as the rest of his life Starts today He would fight the fight He would hold his own He would be creative in the battle zone He was tough as nails He was sensitive But it wore him down And his life began Now he wears the clothes Of a different man And his search continues to understand Why he fell as he came to the finish line Maybe now is where he was supposed to be All the time
