I was down to zero
Still an unsung hero
Waiting for my ship to come to shore
I stood empty handed
Like a seagull stranded
Watching all the other seagulls soar
I was slowly losing hope
Twisting frayed ends of the rope
In a suicidal fantasy
I was going to extremes
Losing sight of all my dreams again
I never thought I'd win
[Guitar solo]
I was blinded by the pain
Running wild through the rain
In a parody of extacy
I was inches from the edge
Fingers clinging to the ledge again
I never thought I'd win
[Chorus]
Win in the end
I'm gonna win in the end
Win in the end
I'm gonna win in the end
Got to keep my cool
I am not the fool
Everyone expects to play me for
I could change the pattern
Steal a ring from Saturn
Forge myself into a man-of-war
I am equal to the task
I won't hide behind the mask
What you see is what you'll get from me
I am stronger than they think
They can force me to the brink again
But now I know I'll win
[Chorus]
I will steal the thunder
Rolling out from under
Every cloud that's clashing(?) in the sky
Like a true defender
I will not surrender
Why should I lie down for them and die?
I am equal to the task
I won't hide behind the mask
What you see is what you'll get from me
I am stronger than they think
They can force me to the brink again
But now I know I'll win
