a guy named sid
spock's beard
sid was wild when he was a kid
never quite understood why he did just what he did
now he wonders why nobody likes him
now he wonders why he can't get any respect
his is the same old story
he fell flat in his moment of glory
now he want us all to feel his sadness
with all the junk spilling from his mouth of madness
sid went high to the top of the mountain
stood tall with the weight of the world upon his back
in a sea of money and power
fought for his name until the final hour
his is the same old story
he fell flat in his moment of glory
now he wants us all to feel his sadness
with all the junk spilling from his mouth of madness
i used to be an honest man
now it's gone and i don't know why
i can't lie to myself anymore
his is the same old story
he fell flat in his moment of glory
now he wants us all to feel his sadness
with all the junk spilling from his mouth of madness
every story has two sides
but no one ever wants to hear mine
no no one ever wants to hear mine
sometimes it's like i don't exist
i'm number one on everyone's most hated list
tearing me down is something no one can resist
what it's like to sink so far below
i just need someone to show me where
i need someone to lead me there
there was time when i knew love
but i can't remember when it was
no i can't remember when it was
i couldn't have been born this way
it's been building up day after day
a little bit of pain can go a long way
what it's like to sink so far below
i just need someone to show me where
i need someone to lead me there
this is the story of a guy named sid
who lost his heart when he was just a kid
don't judge him on the things that he did
this is the story of a guy named sid
just how far will any one man go
can you turn back at the end of the road
feel the shock as your reality grows
just how far will any one man go
i was born and then i rose
it came to me and then i froze
i lost my voice i couldn't see
i felt the sweat pour out of me
the limelight dimmed and turn me in
all my deeds turned to sin
the flesh upon my skin began to crawl
i can't help the way that i am
cause it was you that made me
you never offered to lend a hand
i know there's something missing
got to find a way to make it happen
it's been such a long long time
got to find a way to clean up my mind
it's time to change my story
the leaves on my tree have withered and died
but the tree is not dead the voice in my head says
i've a long long way to go
whether for you and whether for me
all is not lost if i can let it be
all is not lost if i can let it be
it's time to change my story
to get back my moment of glory
everybody can you feel my madness?
take it all in and shout it to the masses
