A silent awe, a thrill of joy
All eyes upon the eager boy
An eerie hush, they let it in
Release the beast and let the games begin
While prancing to the overture
He knew what he was meant to do
And so he stabbed it in the back
And realized his tragic friend was dead
Utopia, utopia
Where a hero's meant to shine
But the pain is left behind
Utopia, utopia
Where the frantic quest for peace
Only leads you to disease
With time the boy became a man
And there was blood upon his hands
By day adored as demigod
But night his inner demons walked abroad
The deadly dance of man and beast
Demoralizing piece by piece
He feared the day he'd be remiss
When finally he'd meet his nemesis
Utopia, utopia
Where a hero's meant to shine
But the pain is left behind
Utopia, utopia
Where the frantic quest for peace
Only leads you to disease
He knew his life was built on sand
When it all got out of hand
And the crowd
They showed no mercy
And so he tried to suit their needs
Shoveling holy drudge with slime on the road
The road, the road
Now there he lays so frail and weak
Recall a life so bittersweet
And as his foe eclipsed the skies
He saw a touch of goodness in its eyes
Utopia, utopia
Where a hero's meant to shine
But the pain is left behind
Utopia, utopia
Where the frantic quest for peace
Only leads you to disease
Utopia, utopia
Where a beggar died alone
Now a hero's coming home
Utopia, utopia
And the cheering fades away
And the silence comes to stay
