Big Things

Take an ounce, it's all you got left is a delightful memory scrawled into the brain We're the ones they cast aside In pursuit of big things I carried your burdens Wretched things clouded your eyes I tried to engage Protruding like planks etched in design You always wanted this and here it is Bask in its luminous rays You've given in I tried to begin I tried to get inside Stumbled around your brain there is nowhere to hide It's understandable - you've jumped ship Or would you do it all again? We're the ones they cast aside You were meant for great things You told yourself like a mantra you willed it to be Speak it into existence Shape the world Cut it off at the knees I stood back and watched you take the helm Respectful it's cruel Diffusing silent rage We're all reaching your elegance We're all revering your elegance
