Delusions of grandeur Visions of splendour

This is a song that in 77 when I 1st heard it, I just knew it meant something genuinely to me, it was just so inspirational. I used to put on my big old clunky head phones, and crank up the song, I actually wore the vinyl down and had to buy two more albums to get me through my teens. I had not even heard of insane, let alone what a manic depressive was, until this song. In my family we were just used to total utter confusion, every one we knew was like that. We thought this was normal We did not even call it utter confusion, We had a big family and were always around many family members, So I could not understand why people would be mean and cruel to a person who was just helping others. Yes now I understand they / we are called (care takers) for anyone else but themselves / ourselves. I now understand.
Thank you Geddy Lee, for these song lyrics, and this song.


A modest man from Mandrake Travelled rich to the city He had a need to discover A use for his newly found wealth Because he was human Because he had goodness Because he was moral They called him insane Delusions of grandeur Visions of splendour A manic depressive He walks in the rain Eyes wide open Heart undefended Innocence untarnished... Cinderella Man Doing what you can They can't understand What it means Cinderella Man Hang on to your plans Try as they might They cannot steal your dreams In the betrayal of his love he awakened To face a world of cold reality And a look in the eyes of the hungry Awakened him to what he could do He held up his riches To challenge the hungry Purposeful motion For one so insane They tried to fight him Just couldn't beat him This manic depressive Who walks in the rain
