Dream Theater
Status Seeker (2004 live remastered)
[Verse 1]
Heart sick at the sight of the status seeker
In a sense I'm not beyond reproach
The aspiration to drop a name when any rose might smell the same
Maybe you'll figure it out someday
I want to know you now, you know I've always believed in you
[Chorus 1]
Nothing is sacred, you draw the bottom line with a dollar sign
Change of opinion at the drop of a dime
Graceless intrusion, are you sanctified in your judgment of me?
All that I deserve is what you were unable to see
[Verse 2]
In a garden where the seeds were spilled
I favored the few that stood strong in the sun
As I reached for the profit of my prize
I found I had trampled the forgotten ones
[Chorus 1]
Nothing is sacred, you draw the bottom line with a dollar sign
Change of opinion at the drop of a dime
Graceless intrusion, are you sanctified in your judgment of me?
All that I deserve is what you were unable to see
[Chorus 2]
You're running in circles and I'm turning away
You refused to believe, now I'm turning away
[Chorus 1]
Nothing is sacred, you draw the bottom line with a dollar sign
Change of opinion at the drop of a dime
Graceless intrusion, are you sanctified in your judgment of me?
All that I deserve is what you were unable to see
[Chorus 2]
You're running in circles and I'm turning away
You refused to believe, now I'm turning away
