Gears turning that no wrench can attack
Consideration
Or pause had their time come and pass
No gloves bet you can't get enough
Make a fine parade so the public sways in your wake

I just thought that I would go
Till the money's gone
I never wanted to fake it
Now I can't stop till everyone
Who ever done me wrong
Knows I’m not willing to take it

[Hook]
Boy, you've got a Hard time
Bring yourself to glory

[Chorus]
I never wanted my name up in bright lights
But I think that I might be there soon
I owe it all to you (I owe it all to you)
I was never looking for fame or the limelight
But I think that I might be there soon
I owe it all to you

No one ever told me what it meant to be alone
I had to learn on my lonesome
Now every feigning flame I chance upon
I put the fire on
I keep my wheels in motion

[Hook]
Boy, you've had a hard time
Bring yourself to glory

[Chorus]
I never wanted my name up in bright lights
But I think that I might be there soon
I owe it all to you (I owe it all to you)
I was never looking for fame or the limelight
But I think that I might be there soon
I owe it all to you

[Bridge]
Boy you've had a hard time
Bring yourself to glory
You've had a hard time
Bring yourself to glory
You've had a hard time
Bring yourself to glory
And here's those spoils of war that you asked for

[Chorus]
I never wanted my name up in bright lights
But I think that I might be there soon
I owe it all to you (I owe it all to you)
I was never looking for fame or the limelight
But I think that I might be there soon
I owe it all to you

[Outro]
