I once saw it in a book I had
God was by my side
My name in lights up there on the marquee
And God was very proud
I've been a miner for a heart of gold
A dreamer who just won't wake up
I thought I'd plunge into the deepest vein
It wasn't deep enough
And I will fall a hundred stories
And open up my hand
And scatter all my dreams of glory
Like seeds upon the land
Still have your picture on my wall of faith
Next to the grocery list
I keep forgetting I should take you down
I'm gonna take you down
And I will fall a hundred stories
And open up my hand
And scatter all my dreams of glory
Like seeds upon the land
And I'll join the league of failures
And I will be resigned
To fall a hundred stories
And leave it all behind
And I will promise to forget the ones
Who took more than they gave
At least I'll have some peace of mind
As I dig their graves
And on my way down I hope to see
The one I hurt the most
Perhaps he'll open up his window
And we'll fly this ghost
And I will fall a hundred stories
And open up my hand
And scatter all my dreams of glory
Like seeds upon the land
And I'll join the league of failures
I bet that I'll be glad
To fall a hundred stories
And I'll have peace at last
And I'll set this house on fire
And burn the whole thing down
My laurels turned to ashes
And I'll still be around
