lyrics

Like climbing a mountain
Or licking your plate
You’re destined to rule
Or be ruled by your fate

You’re under hypnosis
Or over the hill
Or ducking whatever
Your good lies couldn’t kill

Lost in a swirl of half-chopped-off dreams
And fantasies I couldn’t touch
Of whiskey and women and money and fame
And fashion and talent and such

You conquer your fears
You conquer your fears
You conquer your fears
Conquer your fears

I quit talking issues
And fondling fools
And playing my game
By the other guy’s rules

Yeah, I’m finally grabbing
My life by the head
And plunging it into
The waters of dread

Smacked to the mat by heavyweight dreams
And fantasies I couldn’t touch
Of whiskey and women and money and fame
And fashion and talent and such

I conquered my fears
I conquered my fears
I conquered my fears
Conquered my fears

I filled my brain with places and names
And fantasies I couldn’t touch
Of whiskey and women and money and fame
I conquered my fears
I conquered my fears
I conquered my fears
Conquered my fears
