Blackwell - Almost Gifted lyrics



A man can scarcley choose his West
When he with all his talents blessed
Looks beyond the wall
To a last desire, to a last desire

With faith in each ability
He turns his hands quite willingly
To scale each wall
And claim each golden spire

His ego soon to bring him woes
Becomes to him his worst of foes
When he gives his best and fails
Time and again, time and again

So bitterly his pride abused
He sees a skeptic all amused
And he turns away
From searching eyes, a friend

No one to show which way to turn
He only knows he's tried to learn
And now he sees his work
Through scornful eyes

When akwardly he stands to see
One careless touch of artistry
From someone else, oh
Will it take his prize

And he with throne all powdered
And eyes of blistering stripes of hurt
And tries with hiding hands
His wounds to bind, his wounds to blind

He vainly thinks his victory near
And pushes back a knowing fear
To a hollow ringing place
He's called his mind

Was this his destiny from birth
To be most cursèd of the cursed
And almost gifted
Just a child of time

Who's beads have strapped him in his strung
Should break the thread from which they hung
And close the gates of hope
One final time, one final time
