Greatness

Greatness is a concept of a state of superiority affecting a person or object in a particular place or area. Greatness can also be attributed to individuals who possess a natural ability to be better than all others. An example of an expression of the concept in a qualified sense would be "Abraham Lincoln is the definition of greatness" or "Franklin D. Roosevelt was one of the greatest wartime leaders". In the unqualified sense it might be stated "George Washington achieved greatness within his own lifetime", thus implying that "greatness" is a definite and identifiable quality. Application of the terms "great" and "greatness" is dependent on the perspective and subjective judgements of those who apply them. Whereas in some cases the perceived greatness of a … more »

It started so casually
And then it grew so gradually
And I hope this doesn't make you mad at me
But I swear I never thought that it would go this far
I never thought for one second I'd fall for you this hard
And I'd love to blame this on my father
But that's a cop out
It feels like every time I crash my air bag never pops out
But I block out the whispers
I ignore all the lies
And the only thing I see is your beautiful eyes
She said, " I don't know if I'm in your heart or just in your way.
And you can leave if you want but you're welcomed to stay.
You're in my heart in a way that words just can't explain.
And I know you feel alone but we're one and the same."
And I don't know where I begin and I'm not sure where she ends
But I know I always finish what I start
And every time that dart penetrates my skin
It breaks right through and then it breaks her heart
And I can feel you slowly slipping away
And I might resent you for the time being
I'm being so selfish
I turn on myself 'cause I'm the one to blame
And I know you say I shouldn't but I just couldn't help it
I just couldn't help it
It used to sting but now I'm too numb to feel
Used to think it was in my head now it's a little too real
When I say I'm fine that's just a lie I can't keep up
I feel like Katrina with no FEMA
I'm scared I'll drown but I can't ask for help
I can't swim against the tide I'm no Michael Phelps
She looked me dead in my eyes and told me don't let it drive you
But I feel like it steers everything that I do
I'm Scott Weiland
Waitin' to be reunited with the rest of the Pilots to get me back on that high
It's how I survive
It's everything that I need
And I need you to understand that it's everything to me
I don't want it, I just need it
I need it like I need you, it's no secret
And I die a little every time that it seeps through
My life flashes in front of my eyes and all I see is you
And I can feel you slowly slipping away
And I might resent you for the time being
I'm being so selfish
I turn on myself 'cause I'm the one to blame
And I know you say I shouldn't but I just couldn't help it
I never asked for the spotlight I just wanted the spot
So when I saw those flashing lights I was still in the dark
Still in denial
God I don't wanna say goodbye
Don't wanna let you go
Don't wanna come down from this high
'Cause the fall from grace is a little more than I can take
It's become a game
There's only so much I can fake
And now there's more finesse more triangle offense
And now there's more cameras and no more honest
And no one hears a sound and no one feels my guilt
It's just you and I and everything we've built
And it falls in slow motion and it crashes in silence
And I know you only cry in private
But keep in mind we never expected to last this long
And I'm sure you didn't plan to end up in every song
But I always said you deserve more credit than you get
And this is how you break a heart in just twelve steps
And I can feel you slowly slipping away
And I might resent you for the time being
I'm being so selfish
I turn on myself 'cause I'm the one to blame
And I know you say I shouldn't but I just couldn't help it
And I can feel this slowly coming apart
And I swear to God I never thought I'd have to watch you walk out of my life
And I swear from the bottom of my heart
I'll make my way back to you one day and make this right
