Keeping up with the theme of MONOMANIA, which the band describes as:
MONOMANIA [noun]: exaggerated or obsessive enthusiasm for or preoccupation with one thing
SEARCHING FOR GLORY talks about the obsessive preoccupation with glory.
[Intro]
If you're searching for glory, this isn't it
Searching for something good within
[Verse 1]
There's something we lack, it tears us apart
And says we can't be different
It's harder to see, they want us to fail
Derailed for their amusement
[Pre-Chorus]
But you'll learn to escape
You're not bound to your fate
Create a better way
So now it's your turn
Light the fire that burns in all of us
[Chorus]
If you're searching for glory, this isn't it
Searching for something good within
It's hard to be patient if you can't win
When the torture never ends
You're searching for glory
I'd die to find it
[Verse 2]
I can relate, I've used all my pain
To try and make a difference
I've wasted my time, devalued my life
And battled with my conscience
[Pre-Chorus]
So now it's my turn
I'll light the fire that burns in all of us
[Chorus]
If you're searching for glory, this isn't it
Searching for something good within
It's hard to be patient if you can't win
When the torture never ends
You're searching for glory
I'd die to find it
[Bridge]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Some people wish they were someone else
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
It's not worth it if you lose yourself
Oh-oh, I guess I'm asking for help
(Would you die to find it?)
(Would you die?)
[Chorus]
If you're searching for glory, this isn't it
Searching for something good within
It's hard to be patient if you can't win
When the torture never ends
If you're searching for glory, this isn't it
Searching for something good within
It's hard to be patient if you can't win
When the torture never ends
You're searching for glory
I'd die to find it
