Slow Hello - Hail the Dilettante

Never had to face this much scrutiny before
Waited for my face in the frame and then you shut the door
Patronizing, inimical as I turned my back
Brilliance won't make up for all the courtesies you lack

Someday I'll get mine
Eat your hero worship
I'm sure I'll be just fine
Making up for time
Nothing left to do but grit my teeth
Start to climb

Always had to take the sting with maybe some honey
Laugh at what I had to offer, truth and the real me
You're so high and mighty and I don't know what I want
Substance or the wish to please, all hail the dilettante

Someday I'll get mine
Eat your hero worship
I'm sure I'll be just fine
Making up for time
Nothing left to do but grit my teeth
Start to climb

Nose in the mud
Limbs splayed
Frozen joints
Staid
Eyes on the next
Hand on hold
Fear in chest
Bold

Someday I'll get mine
Eat your hero worship
I'm sure I'll be just fine
Making up for time
Nothing left to do but grit my teeth
Start to climb
