Hopeless Ambition Songtext
von For Today

Watch me as I self destruct
Under the weight of everything I wanted
Watch me as I self destruct
I gained the world, but it was not enough (not enough)

Our idols are why we′re broken
Please show us that hope is
A hopeless ambition
So we turned away (so we turned away)
From the gods we'd made (from the gods we′d made)
And we made to break
So only truth remains

All our heroes will fail us
Everyone will fall
All our heroes will fail us
We'll forget them all
All our heroes will fail us
Everyone will fall
All our heroes will fail us
We'll forget them all


Like a crown on a dead man
All our praises are wasted on fame
Like a crown on a dead man
Every king takes his throne for granted

The one who flies the highest
Is doomed to fall the hardest
The one who flies the highest
Is doomed to fall the hardest
Our idols are why we′re broken
Please show us that hope is
A hopeless ambition

So we turned away (so we turned away)
From the gods we′d made (from the gods we'd made)
And we made to break
So only truth remains

All our heroes will fail us
Everyone will fall
All our heroes will fail us
We′ll forget them all
All our heroes will fail us
Everyone will fall
All our heroes will fail us
We'll forget them all


Watch me as I self destruct
Under the weight of everything I wanted
Watch me as I self destruct
I gained the world, but it was not enough, not enough
