Little Man Syndrome

Little man, welcome home
This is your sanctuary, your castle
Little man, do you own
that which is your destiny, your legacy

I've seen it too many times
Lost count over the years
Never thought it was a big deal
But now I see, a man can destroy a family.

His home, his rightful throne.
So mount your horse
Where-ever it may be
And now I see, a man can flee.

He is nothing but
a frost to a farmer's crop
Never thought he could deceive
But now I see, a man empty as can be

Little man, welcome home
This is your sanctuary, your castle
Little man, do you own
that which is your destiny, your legacy

I've seen it too many times
One who can't stand up
Never thought it was a big deal
But now I see, a man can destroy his chance.

His path, now a darkened road.
Count your blessings, a little man
cuts his neightbours throat
only to save his own. 

Little man, little man, why do you give in?
Little man syndrome, has taken its toll.
You cant help but think of yourself
when you should stand up to the task

Little man, welcome home
This is your sanctuary, your castle
Little man, do you own
that which is your destiny, your legacy

I've seen it too many times
in this life. A thousand souls
to lost to care for their own,
Now just bare boned and alone.

I can't judge, but be aware
One day when heaven is here
A little man will wish he
had never been so scared
