Stefan Andersson - High Command lyrics

In a world often dark and cold to the touch So many souls feel they don't have much They gather around someone else's flame Try to steal some light and make a name Maybe catch the wave of someone else's fame Next thing you know you're their master plan Have a ticket to ride, you're their candy man They harness your dream till you become the pawn And you wake up one day where you don't belong A sun in the sky of someone else's dawn Got to own your own dream Follow your own plan No one can lead you To you promised land The day will come You'll have to take a stand A man's own heart Got to be his high command You may never know what's lying in wait Got to post guard at your kingdoms gate But what ever comes, keep what you love in sight And don't point your gun at every noise in the night A battle can't be won if it's not yours to fight They'll hand you the moon But then you're bound to pay Sometimes to stand your ground You got to walk away
