The Greatest Lyrics - Cinematographic - Junior Varsity

Oh, I sought out to be the greatest 

And my face among them all 

And we sought out to be the greatest 

In the bottom we stand, together we fall 

Since I'm out, I'm being honest 

A tall tale will do 

And come on, climb up though you're tired 

The higher we go, the more we can lose 

Thicker skin, you know we gotta 

Try to tough it out 

Our flags flown upside down 

Oh, we're in rough water 

Twenty years has run you ragged 

It's time to sink or swim 

Where would I begin? 

Why even bother? 

Yeah, I hope and I pray 

Yeah, I cry and I beg 

If I try to sit on the fence 

And watch it sink in, I watch it sink in 

Stow your baggage, store it away 

Yeah, it gets in my way, you get in my way 

Don't worry about what happens now 

Don't worry about the sky 

It's on fire, born again 

Yeah, I hope and I pray 

Yeah, I cry and I beg 

If I try to sit on the fence 

And watch it sink in, I watch it sink in 

Stow your baggage, store it away 

Yeah, it gets in my way, you get in my way 

Don't worry about what happens now 

Don't worry about the sky 

It's on fire 

Don't worry about what happens now 

Don't worry about the signs 

This world is coming to an end 

I think we all know 

Hey man, do you got a ride? 

No bike, no shoes to walk 

Hey man, do you got the time? 

No time, no pocket watch 

Hey man, do you got a life? 

Change me enough because I 

Yeah, I hope and I pray 

Yeah, I cry and I beg
