Dennis DeYoung - Crossing The Rubicon Lyrics
Somewhere in the madness of a long forgotten time
Resurrect the pieces to the crime
I'm searching for an answer that somehow could explain
Why I feel this misery and pain
But who am I to pretend
Sifting through the ashes for any alibis
All I find is me in my disguise
Father won't you help me, hallowed be thy name
I confess I am the one to blame
And though my life fades to black
I know there's no turning back
So as I cross the Rubicon
I know I can't go on feeling this way
A fool who's waiting on some better day
When all my prayers are answered and all my sins absolved
And all life's mysteries have been resolved
Father won't you tell me, why life is such a sham
And why I don't know who the hell I am
And though I'm feeling estranged
I must admit somehow I've changed
So as I cross the Rubicon
I know I'll carry on, oh come what may
And I can't be like Estragon
A fool who's waiting on some judgement day
Woke up in a cold sweat screaming
Same dream I'm always dreaming
Look out there's a monster waitin'
Comin' for me with the mark of Satan
Can't run I'm in slow motion
I can't swim in the middle of the ocean
I can't breathe I need intubation
Everywhere I look there's complete devastation
Wake me
Wake me, somebody wake
And as I cross the Rubicon
I vow to carry on, oh come what may
And I'll not be like Estragon
Some fool who's waiting for someone to say
It's ok...

Magnificent song!
The Mission was a great album by Styx released in 2017. I love Dennis and Tommy and I refuse to get caught up in this idea we have to chose one over the other. I am a huge Styx fan and that's all that matters.
Such a great sons and album. Both sound more STYX-like than anything Styx has done in 2 decades. :) What does that tell you? Dennis DeYound IS Styx!!!
So true bro! Dennis IS Styx and styx is Dennis! The other band posing as "styx" is a tribute band, nothing more.
