	Story Behind the Song Originally written in '95 on 4-track, and then re-recorded for the album in '96. This song documents a power struggle within then band that eventually led to the ousting of one of the members. Lyrics Bow down before your majesty One knee in front of the thrown All I ever did was want to be on my own I know the difference in you and me Though I've never felt the weight of your crown I'll prove that I can stand out for the crowd It's been days since I've last spoken Could be more before I know the truth Is my purpose to play the pawn in your game too And if I want it that way then I'll go out to the boundaries I'll search the darkest caves I'll run the desert 'til I die or I'm found All for somebody who could care less if I stick around How can you sit there and take it away from me When all I ever did was want to fly With the words you said you kept both my feet on the ground This road I'm traveling looks so familiar The stones are set and the gravel worn With the right decisions I can tell this paths been traveled before I gave my everything you would just give it back I have to make my mark before I leave All this work for a goal that I'll never achieve
