Terrible Slave

If I could be honest Your promises never meant much in my design You've got your vocation But I've got my mission I've got my own vision In my own mind Did you really believe I would fall for your ploy To be traded around like I'm somebody's toy? And I'm wary of your lies The shameless ambition behind your eyes I've seen before The dream beyond The world behind The life you lead It could never be mine I don't fit in I won't behave I must admit I'm a terrible slave Didn't you notice that I'm a man on a mission? If I could be honest I never did promise to offer you my heart You never believed in me You simply needed me to be a stand-in To play my part Didn't I play the part I was destined to play? Didn't you lose a game that was lost either way? The dream beyond The world behind The life you lead It could never be mine I don't fit in I won't behave I must admit I'm a terrible slave Didn't you notice that I'm a man on a mission? Waiting Hoping Grasping Groping Probing places Questions deep in my mind The dream beyond The world behind The life you lead It could never be mine I don't fit in I won't behave I must admit I'm a terrible slave The dream beyond The world behind The life you lead It could never be mine I don't fit in I won't behave I must admit I'm a terrible slave Is it beyond you to comprehend? Are you unable to understand? Haven't you recognized I'm a man on a mission?
