Potential Songtext
von Craig's Brother

Hey there, Mr. Personality
Was everybody wrong to think
That you would have
The world on it′s knees

Or perhaps we were too blind to see
That all your grace would fall to entropy
Leaving only fear and apathy
And useless dreams

And the shadows that you cast
So tall on the wall of possibility
Grow closer to infinity
With every word that goes unsaid

'Cause you could build your house of gold
If you could only find a place to start
But for now there′s just a question mark
Hanging on your head


'Cause you could be the best there ever was
'Cause you could be the best there ever was
′Cause you could be the best there ever was
But you won′t move 'cause you′re to scared
Potential shines so bright when never dared

And I never thought I'd find you
Gagged and bound by mediocrity
Denying who you want to be
How did your standards get so low?

Or are you still content hang your feat
In the pool of opportunity
When everyone has yet to see
A single thing to show

Hey, Mr. World at your feet
Did you finally accept defeat?
Or was your bark
More than your bite

When you wake up from your dream
To find your smile has lost it′s gleam
Well, maybe then
You'll see the light


′Cause you could be the best there ever was
'Cause you could be the best there ever was
'Cause you could be the best there ever was
But nothing′s gained when nothing′s shared
Potential shines so bright when never dared

So break those chains and take the world
It's yours to claim, or are you still afraid
To take some value from those
Impotent dilapidated aspirations
