I never meant to defend my arrogance

You should have known it was only innocence

You're holding tight to a dry and calloused hand

All you needed was a kind and simple man

Left alone on the road to San Ramon

Insecure when my ego took control

All I wanted failed to find you

What you wanted left for dead

Far from heaven where I started

Carried this for far too long

And now I see my ego take control

So mundane

All this is vanity
